And how do you optimize your workflow based on the feeds? Extra thanks if you are working as an academic researcher gathering feeds from different journals

    I self-host FreshRSS. I’m pretty happy with it. It works well and you can add extensions to customize it if you need something particular. And I use the browser extension so I get notifications for new articles.

    I used to use Feedly before. It was pretty alright, but I got annoyed by just how many things you needed to pay for

      FreshRSS is solid. I hadn’t heard of it until I saw it mentioned on lemmy, installed it, and I love it. The bookmarklet is great, too.

    When GReader died, I switched to Feedly for a bit, but then found InoReader and have stuck with them since. It’s got the most options for customization/organization and filters/rules that I need and the Android app is great.

    I’m using Feeder currently, but I am looking into setting up FreshRSS or Miniflux for easier cross-device use.

    After testing many, I stayed with Inoreader on desktop and mobile.

    I like the design and the features.

    Also, I created a simple userscript for desktop, which automatically loads the full article when I click on one.

    I spent so much time trying to find a good reader. Nothing quite scratched that itch I have for google news but less shit. Eventually I came across Artifact. Not an rss reader but it’s the best news app I’ve come across.

    I’ve been a Feedly user ever since Google Reader shut down. For me, the ability to sync feeds and progress among devices is a deal breaker, and I have become pretty partial to the app’s swipe to mark as read gesture.

    After reading this thread, I may have to give NextCloud News or FreshRSS a try when I’m up for it.

    Nextcloud News

    Does well enough and I use Nextcloud for various other things already.
    So no real reason to use anything else.

    FreshRSS on my raspberry pi. I admittedly don’t have a super good way to optimize my workflow regarding journals. I added Nature and intended to add more, including more specialized journals for my field, but its feed alone proved to be about as much as I could keep up with. If you’re in medical or life sciences, you could try adding feeds based on PubMed searches (there’s a “Create RSS” button under the search bar on the results page); you’ll get a feed of new papers that match your search terms. I don’t know what resources like PubMed there are for other fields and what they might offer in this regard, though.
