Related, what reader do you use? I'd like one that's free, and I mean actually free. Not one that makes me pay when I hit 50 subs. Ideally an android app

Feeder is ok. Why would an rss app make you pay?

Dunno, the last time I went looking I couldn't find any decent free apps. Thanks!

Looking at the pricing page for feeder, apparently you're limited to 200 feeds on the free tier?

[–] eatham@aussie.zone 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't even see a pricing page on their website, so no clue what you are on about.

Looks like there's multiple with the same name, huh

Torrentleech.org feed so I can autodownload some stuff.

I also recently asked this question to a programming community and a self-hosting community, so if either of those interest you (or any related computing topics):

Mostly miscellaneous podcasts.

It's a way to get updates from websites you follow in a centralized place without having to visit them all

Quite convenient, but not that popular nowadays

How clever!

I use the feeder extension on firefox to search for RSS feeds on websites.

I follow a few blogs (WordPress sites EMB RSS), anime updates, web novels, manga and more.

So instead of having bookmarks and going to check for updates the RSS feed checks on a schedule and updates lists for me.

Its old tech but still a solid way to consume and track content.

Dozens of webcomics, one food blog, a couple ethics blogs, and a couple programming development blogs.

Personally: none.
Professionally: a bunch of PSIRTS and updates feeds from vendors.
