It’s my daily news driver and the app I am spending most time in. Have to find ways to limit the amount of sources, though. FOMO is a factor.

Only annoying thing, but I guess out of this app‘s influence is that the embedded safari doesn‘t use the Adblock plugin. AFAIK that’s an iOS/Safari restriction. This leads to huge amount of ads on same pages I open directly in the app. Any clues maybe?

Open in browser instead?

Sure that works, but it breaks the flow

I started using this client a few days ago, in an effort to reduce my news addiction. By combining everything in a simple interface with chronological order, hope it helps avoid the flashy sources which make you scroll. Thanks to everything working on the RSS ecosystem

I use it daily to catch up news and reading. Best RSS reader I have used on iOS.

Grateful for your hard work on this, Brent and team.

Wow, totally forgot I've used this rss reader in the past. Happy to still it's still rocking and stronger than ever!

Ps: love the statement "it's like podcast, but for reading".

which is ironic, because podcasts are built on this technology, if i remember correctly. but yeah. people "got" podcasts but somehow have a hard time accepting rss/atom readers.

i have netnewswire and it's great!

Actually, RSS was not unaccepted from my experience. Instead, demise of Google Reader with the desire of user capture (Medium, newsletters and in browser notifications) starved reader applications of RSS feeds.

It accelerated when browsers removed RSS readers, so nobody had an incentive to offer them.

Since people fed up, RSS started to reappear. It was never dead for me, but finding feeds were impossible. Now the people I care to read offer RSS feeds, and I'm a happy RSS user again.
