Are you still using a feed reader?

Yes. Inoreader. Tried Feedly, but at that time Inoreader seemed to have most of the features I needed + it was really multi-platforms.

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.

Yes. Self hosting tt-rss[1] and using it for close to an year now. No problem what so ever; It's so low maintenance that I would've quite possibly forgotten about it if I wasn't reading the feeds everyday. Before this I was using elfeed[2] which is a great piece of software, but I read things across various devices and elfeed had some issues with that (after all it's supposed to run inside emacs).

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.

Yes. I normally don't access hn any other way. A feed reader is still the best way to handle information

👤 hopesthoughts
Yep, I just figured out Feedbin after all these years lol. I was using something different before that.

I personally never used RSS and I think mostly because I always use Twitter.

Yes. I use newsboat.
