Feedly★★★☆☆Cloud-based feed reader with all the bells and whistles, focusing too much on the bells and whistles.
Fluent Reader★★★☆☆A simple, no-nonsense, modern-looking RSS/Atom newsfeed reader for Windows, Mac and Linux. Optionally sync with multiple services, but I’ve had issues with Nextcloud.
Fread★★★★☆Another Bluesky/Mastodon/RSS Combo app like OpenVibe, a bit less polished but considerably more useful. Handles multiple accounts per type, plus custom feeds.
Liferea★★★★☆A nice, lightweight feed reader for Linux that does the basics.
NetNewsWire★★★★★Clean, stable, fast, free, no-clutter and no-nonsense RSS/Atom newsfeed reader for macOS and iOS.
NewsFlash★★★★★Clean, stable, fast, free, no-clutter and no-nonsense RSS/Atom newsfeed reader for Linux that optionally syncs with multiple services.
Nextcloud News★★★★★Simple web-based news reader for Nextcloud, easy to install and syncs with multiple desktop and mobile clients.
OpenVibe★★★☆☆A cool idea, and it looks great, but the combined feed is too much of a firehose unless you’re only following a small number of people on each account.
Pocket (discontinued)★★★☆☆I used Pocket for ages to better manage my time reading articles. Eventually I soured on the way it’s turned into a recommendation engine. And now Mozilla’s discontinuing it. Wallabag is a decent alternative for the read-it-later aspect.
RSS Guard★★★★☆A solid cross-platform feed reader that runs on Windows, Mac and Linux. Extremely capable and customizable. Syncs with multiple services.
Vivaldi (Web Browser)★★★★★Spiritual successor to the original Opera browser, this ultra-customizable web browser can open into a full suite for email, calendar, feeds and more – but only if you want it to.
Wallabag★★★★☆A read-it-later type service built on open-source software that you can run yourself if you want (but don’t have to). Not as polished as Pocket, but it’s sticking around, and you know it’s not using your saved bookmarks to train a recommendation engine.
