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...

I've been using the free Vienna for 2 decades (before that the now discontinued free Shrook), but a few years ago I switched to the (commercial) News Explorer. Great app. Source: about 2 years ago
I use a commercial app, News Explorer, because my OS doesn't meet NNW's requirements. Very happy with that one. Source: over 2 years ago
I'm using News Explorer without any online service. Works great for me on macOS and iOS/iPadOS. Source: over 2 years ago
Https://betamagic.nl/products/newsexplorer.html I've been using News Explorer and I've been pretty happy with it. There's no subscription and it even has a tvOS/watchOS app. - Source: Hacker News / about 3 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 / about 1 month 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 / 5 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 / 5 months ago
There's the fraidycat extension that I use to do exactly that: https://fraidyc.at/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
