And how do you optimize your workflow based on the feeds? Extra thanks if you are working as an academic researcher gathering feeds from different journals

    I use Elfeed for Emacs, as just one small part of Emacs’s slow conquest of other programs on my computer. Before that, I used Liferea, which is a nice standalone feed reader.

    Elfeed lets me assign each feed in my list different tags, so I can do basic filtering for what I want to read at any given time. I generally avoid subscribing to any high-density feeds like news sites. I prefer to have maybe a dozen or so links per day that definitely interest me.

    I use morss.it to fetch the full text from feeds that only provide a brief summary.

    FreshRSS on my raspberry pi. I admittedly don’t have a super good way to optimize my workflow regarding journals. I added Nature and intended to add more, including more specialized journals for my field, but its feed alone proved to be about as much as I could keep up with. If you’re in medical or life sciences, you could try adding feeds based on PubMed searches (there’s a “Create RSS” button under the search bar on the results page); you’ll get a feed of new papers that match your search terms. I don’t know what resources like PubMed there are for other fields and what they might offer in this regard, though.

    Nextcloud News

    Does well enough and I use Nextcloud for various other things already.
    So no real reason to use anything else.

    When GReader died, I switched to Feedly for a bit, but then found InoReader and have stuck with them since. It’s got the most options for customization/organization and filters/rules that I need and the Android app is great.

    I self-host FreshRSS. I’m pretty happy with it. It works well and you can add extensions to customize it if you need something particular. And I use the browser extension so I get notifications for new articles.

    I used to use Feedly before. It was pretty alright, but I got annoyed by just how many things you needed to pay for

      FreshRSS is solid. I hadn’t heard of it until I saw it mentioned on lemmy, installed it, and I love it. The bookmarklet is great, too.

    I use Feedbin as my syncing backend and the excellent Reeder on iPhone and iPad to read the feeds.

    Currently I use Feedly, but if I had the time I’d love to have a CLI aggregator on my Linux box.

    I’m using Feeder currently, but I am looking into setting up FreshRSS or Miniflux for easier cross-device use.

      The so is simple enough to do just what I want it to, but also has some likeable quirks.
