RIP Google Reader

Feedbin

I find <a href="https://feedbin.com/" rel="nofollow">https://feedbin.com/</a> almost identical (Feedly feels a bit too different for my liking, but is clearly the most popular) but it also feels like times have moved on and I don't find myself using it in the same way. The blogosphere isn't quite what it was back in the late 00s.

BazQux Reader

Shout out to <a href="https://bazqux.com" rel="nofollow">https://bazqux.com</a>, a modern Google Reader replacement and the only SaaS I pay for. I'm not affiliated, just really love it. It's been solid and awesome for me for over 7 years now.

Miniflux

I was a heavy Google Reader user and mourned it for years. A couple years ago, though, I discovered Miniflux [1], and haven't really missed Reader since.<p>What I <i>do</i> miss from the Reader days, though, is widespread RSS support. I wonder if the death of such a prominent RSS reader gave sites "permission" to stop supporting RSS, and pushed RSS into further obscurity. Anecdotally, it feels like RSS is a feature often not carried over after a site redesign.<p>[1] <a href="https://miniflux.app/" rel="nofollow">https://miniflux.app/</a>.

hckr news

As someone who prefers both chronological river (<a href="https://techmeme.com/river" rel="nofollow">https://techmeme.com/river</a>) AND a metric of popularity (upvotes) nothing beats <a href="https://hckrnews.com" rel="nofollow">https://hckrnews.com</a>. I wish that design was more common.<p>Instead of having higher ranking posts climb to the top, a hotness bar and a popular bar to the left of links is ideal. The bigger the bars, the more activity an article is generating.
