I was looking for something like this for quite some time. I've been using Fraidycat for about 2 months now. It's very simple and easy to use. I love the you can organize your feeds by simple "emoji" tags. Also, the idea of setting an importance/frequency level per feed is great.
If only more websites had RSS feeds...
Fraidycat might be a bit more popular than Blogtrottr. We know about 30 links to it since March 2021 and only 25 links to Blogtrottr. We are tracking product recommendations and mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you identify which product is more popular and what people think of it.
I love the existence of both this and https://blogtrottr.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
There is also https://blogtrottr.com/ which has a free plan with ads. It seems to update hourly on the free plan. (I used this service for years before creating my own, I can highly recommend it). Source: almost 2 years ago
There are other services available as well. The keyword you are looking for is rss-to-email. I used to use https://blogtrottr.com/ for years before making my own and they have an ad-supported free tier if you prefer that. Source: about 2 years ago
I use RSS-to-Email then read them in my mail clients. Most things get routed to a few folders without notifications that I open when I want news. I'm using my own RSS-to-Email service https://feedmail.org but I've also used https://blogtrottr.com/ in the past. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
And you can get realtime RSS→email at https://blogtrottr.com/ for free (ads in emails). Or use some other RSS app. Source: over 2 years ago
There are a couple readers that avoid that by providing a calmer experience without a firehose and without background fetching. https://blogcat.org (I made this one) https://fraidyc.at (this is the inspiration for many calm readers) https://cblgh.itch.io/rad-reader (multiplatform and super calm). - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago
For reference, and not implying it's better or worse than your work OP, I've pleasantly used Fraidycat (https://fraidyc.at/) in the past. It's a webextension, so completely local, and also incorporates the idea of having a "calmer" experience: no infinite list of links to check, different update rates, ... I love your philosophy page, OP ! (https://jamesg.blog/2024/11/30/designing-a-calm-web-reader/). - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
I'm using Fraidycat (https://fraidyc.at/) which I enjoy a lot, but given her recent crusade against feed readers, I suspect that that's the reason that my IP address got blocked or so. (At least, that's what my ISP is leading me to believe because there is no issue on their end). Anyone else out there on the blacklist? - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
There's the fraidycat extension that I use to do exactly that: https://fraidyc.at/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
I went years without consuming RSS until I discovered Fraidy Cat[1] here at Hacker News. 1. https://fraidyc.at. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
