I wanted to self-host, but the time committment required for maintenance (not of the service, but with other services already running on the VPS) made me choose Inoreader.
Every now and then I look around to see if there's a new player in the feed reading game, but often stick with Ino.
For podcasts (since these are also technically feeds) I use AntennaPod[3] on my Android phone, but don't use it too often because of all the time commitment required with podcasts.
