I was heartbroken when Google killed their Reader service. To this day I can't fully understand why they did it - many people used and loved it.

Moved to Feedly but things were never the same. I'd like another app or service that lets me read my subscribed feeds and sync their read/unread status (and save them for reading them later in a separate collection, as you can with Feedly) between android and pc - but being visually well designed as Feedly, without the caps it puts to you like that ridiculous cap on searching into your feeds, being completely free and that is no self hosted (don't have a pc turned on 24/7 nor can afford it)... so yeah maybe this is asking for too much.

However, I absolutely agree RSS is absolutely awesome and wish more people get into it

I second that excitement! When I first found RSS, it felt like rediscovering the original intent of the internet. It gives you full flexibility of your sources of information all in one place, without giving your data away to a corporate entity, or signing up for any platform for that matter.

Tbh it is such a breath of fresh air compared to the feeds and platforms we've become accustomed to--and RSS has been around longer than them, which is crazy to me.

I just hope websites on the internet continue to support it--as many older, not as common technologies often get phased out.

I personally hate newsletters because

1. my email inbox is already cluttered enough as it is
2. I need to share my email to subscribe, which puts the balance of power into the hands of the sender at the expense of my privacy

I'd rather have newsletters made available through RSS feeds, where I can subscribe and unsubscribe anonymously.

RSS is awesome. My favorite fun fact is that podcasts are RSS-based, which is why you can listen to any of them from any podcast app.

I wish more blogs, websites and services would offer RSS feeds. I personally use Thunderbird as my feed reader on PC. Not sure if the Android client has this functionality too.

It's cool.
I currently catch up on news with it.

Firefox has RSS radar extensions that can help find rss feeds in websites(that don't really show/mention it on every page)
