We all know the struggle of beloved services slowly going downhill. What’s one service, tool, or website you’ve been using for years that’s still great and hasn’t turned to crap?

But the problem is the lack of good, simple RSS readers on mobile. I miss Pulse.
Honestly it’s better to use an RSS server and then manage the feeds in one single RSS feed so you don’t have to shuffle around any kind of local readers. That will make most of them a lot more bearable since their biggest issue is organization. For editing lists of RSS feeds I recommend RSSGuard as it has the best filesystem-like management. Otherwise just use regular expressions on the OPML file
Sockethub (RSS/XMPP/IRC bridge) for Conversations/Cheogram or the Delta/Arcane Chat bots are my personal choice because chronologically bumping the feeds makes sense to me, muting/archiving/custom notifications is easy to manage, as is inviting collaborators.
I actually have invented something better than Google Reader (including the social aspect) but it’s kind of a secret rn 🤫
This sounds awesome! If what you’re talking about is a new software you’re working on, hit me up! I have time to spare for some coding and have literally considered writing a better feed reader for myself or finding an OSS project to contribute to
It’s pretty slapdash and unprofessional using a variety of other people’s projects but I will make a guide for easy, reliable assembly of a federated google reader equivalent when I am satisfied with my shitty fork. The whole misskey fork community is a travesty tho bc misskey has some ǫᴜᴇsᴛɪᴏɴᴀʙʟᴇ design choices. Will keep ya ppsted
