What’s your RSS solutions? (lemmy.world)

I am trying to move away from social media this year, read more news to stay informed and self-host more services. So I figured RSS is the best path forward, but I’m struggling to find a good configuration for my needs, so I thought I’d start a discussion. Also open to any feed recommendations.

I started with Hoarder, which I’m enjoying, but it feels like a solution best used for saving sites/images for reference and not day to day reading. Installed FreshRSS yesterday and absolutely loving it, the web interface is really nice. But I’ve not found an iOS app I like, I’ve got NetNewsWire installed, but it doesn’t seem to acknowledge the Visibility setting in FeshRSS. Which is my favorite setting, I’d like to have some feeds excluded from the main feed (BBC News or DEV.to for example). Maybe there is another way to achieve this with FreshRSS and NetNewsWire.

Any FreshRSS tips?

How do you do RSS personally and any iOS app recommendations?

Also any favorite feeds, I’ve currently got Hackaday, Hacker News, Ars Technica and self.st. I’d like more coding and 3D suggestions, but I’m open to anything.

Miniflux is great. I use Wallabag as my read it later app and selfhost both on a cheap VPS. They're tightly integrated but Miniflux supports several other integrations

I also use miniflux, have used it for more than a year and I have not looked for alternatives, which is good sign.

I use Flux News on android to consume my feeds. https://github.com/KevinCFechtel/FluxNews

I've found the PWA adequate for my phone usage. I found a custom CSS that is sort of a Gruvbox that I really like.

I really liked Miniflux and its clean design too too, but I found without an adequate categorization functionality, it quickly became overwhelming. Since I don't check my RSS reader as often as I should, it eventually got overwhelming and I had to switch to FreshRSS.
