emacs + elfeed

Richard?
I quite like Thunderbird for this.
I didn't know Thunderbird did this. I was trying to think why people would use it who have all their email in one web page already. I use Proton and it seemed unnecessary and yet everyone on Linux seems to use it. I love a good RSS reader though!
It's much less annoying than always leaving a web browser open especially if you have multiple accounts from different providers
I was trying to think why people would use it who have all their email in one web page already.
I would prefer a web client (since emails are already interlinked with the web so a tab for it is less annoying to me) but none of the options satisfied me so I just landed there. You either use a provider with already good web mail (gmail, proton, ...) or you end up with Thunderbird.
But maybe I've missed an option. The best one I've had was Nextcloud Mail but it was really slow to load and search.
I personally prefer native email clients to web (no browser overhead, no ads, no sweet-lord-Yahoo-why-is-that-feature-there, simple no-nonsense layout, plus several features web clients don't have like viewing message headers (which often reveal some fairly interesting information about the various servers the email passed through on its way to your inbox) and, of course, the ability to read email while offline)
Oh, I did not even know it supported RSS/Atom, that's lovely! I think I'll move to that then, thank you :D
Newsboat, which others recommended, also seems interesting, but I personally appreciate images, so that one is sadly a no-go for me, even if being able to ssh into a home server to check up on news, instead of having to sync the feeds across multiple devices, would be absolutely lovely.
Thunderbird
Second this. At this point I treat Thunderbird as an RSS reader that also fetches my email.
I mostly use Thunderbird. Lately I've been using Newsflash.
If you're on Plasma, then why not go with Akgregator?
I don't like how official apps look with a different plasma theme sometimes
Ooo, fever API is now finally supported!
Edit: feverAPI is also deprecated, I guess I'll just use the web version of my rss-app on mobile instead
I use Newsboat.
I currently use Akregator. Which one do you prefer?
I prefer the non nonsense interface of RSS Guard, but then I'm reading CVE notices, so I need it simple and organised.
Still can't decide which one to uninstall. I think akregator looks better but RSS Guard seems to have a lot of development. I'll keep running both.
https://miniflux.app/ - web based so you can read it locally or remotely.
I use Feedly (a website that fills the same role as Google Reader) but I'm not that happy with it nowadays since they seem to be pushing for AI nonsense. Any of you self-hostey people got any suggestions for hosted RSS readers, ideally ones with NixOS modules?
I've been enjoying FreshRSS for the last couple of years.
I have a feedly account but don’t use their apps or site. I’ve struggled to find a good Android client but Newsify on iOS is great. (I have Android and iOS devices and, at the very least, VMs of desktop OSes for developer reasons. So, Feedly syncing everything is my use case. MacOS, Linux, and iOS have Reeder or Newsflash. I barely use Windows except for building and testing and haven’t tried finding on there but I’d be curious if anyone knows of one.)
Feed Me for Android. It's quite good actually!
I self-host FreshRSS as a container with podman behind Traefik on a raspberry pi 5 and use the web interface on desktop and FeedMe on android. Pretty happy with the setup.
If you're looking for something minimal but highly customizable I'd recommend newsboat. For Android I use feedr.
i love newsboat and it's always open on my yakuake!
I use fluent reader on all of my devices connected to my freshrss server back home.
On iOs Netnewswire is really great.
I’m also using a firefox extension for my RSS feed (feedbro) on Fedora.
For Linux I use Fluent Reader; simple, and looks great.

And for Android I use Read You from F-Droid.
https://f-droid.org/packages/me.ash.reader/
Not sure about cloud syncing between them though - I sync by importing/exporting an .ompl file - mainly because I know exactly where my data is at all times.
FluentReader not only looks pretty good, but also is capable of fetching the text from linked articles, avoiding needing to open a web browser (and also stripping all ads in the process)
I am pretty happy with QuiteRSS. Has a built in browser with adblocking, but easy right click options to open tan external browser. Easy to set up feeds and filters.
Just Thunderbird is fine for me, has all the features I want and I already get my email there (but even if I didn't I'd struggle to find an RSS reader with its features).
My shell script. It just prints out parts of the Atom file highlighted.
Did use tt-rss in the past but switched over to miniflux, as I just wanted something more resource friendly.
https://feedly.com/ -firefox online +(tranclate https://addons.mozilla.org/ru/firefox/addon/traduzir-paginas-web/?utm_source=addons.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=search) + android
Quiterss, you dont need more, give it a go for real, u will not regret 👍👌
Feedparser, made nice tui RSS reader in python 😍
I recently switched to iOS, found out that the front end of my feed aggregator doesn’t work worth safari, but then found Unread, which I could use because they both support the fever api. It was quite a trip, but I’m now content
Linux: Evolution (because it's always open for my org mail) Android: Feeder
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
