I’ve tried Raven but it’s archived and not maintained anymore, Fluent Reader and Feeds both of which doesn’t feel smooth at all. Any recommendations? Preferably desktop and not a self-hosted service.

Newsflash is the best from all I tested and even works nice on mobile.

I’ve tried them all. He’s right. It’s the best. It’s very reliable.

RSSGuard for most things, newsboat for keeping track of software releases on github.

RSS Guard was actually great. I love the more old-school but super functional UI. I don’t need any fancy stuff, just stuff that works. Awesome tip.

I like FreshRSS in a container, works great from a browser, and you can hit it from your phone on the loo…
