      First you’d need to get the address of the feeds you want. If a page provides a feed, it should have the little RSS icon somewhere. That should hold the address.

      The URLs come in different shapes, some may look like this:
      https://noyb.eu/en/rss

      Others have the word feed in their name:
      https://archlinux.org/feeds/news/

      And so on and so forth. You’ll see when you get a few together.

      Then you add those addresses to your RSS app of choice, and that’s pretty much it. There’s really not much to it, it’s rather simple, and that’s precisely why I like it. You can then have your RSS app only load the actual content, without all the unnecessary jazz that the website it comes from would show.
      I use Fluent Reader on Linux, and Feeder on Android.

      Try Feedly. As best I can tell, it’s the only spiritual successor to Google Reader from years ago (I’m still salty Google killed it). It’s about the only worthwhile non-self-hosted RSS reader online. Being online, it will sync between devices.

      If you’re a little more technically inclined, you could also look into self-hosting your own feed reader. That’s beyond my abilities, so I don’t know where to point you for that.
