   A great way to follow RSS

   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...

• Google helped destroy adoption of RSS feeds

  I went years without consuming RSS until I discovered Fraidy Cat[1] here at Hacker News. 1. https://fraidyc.at. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• How are you preparing for disinformation campaigns?

  There’s also an aggregator app called fraidycat that pulls content from multiple sources and does so without logging in, so you get a breadth of information and non-personalized results. Source: about 1 year ago

• Twitodon: Finding Twitter Peers on Mastodon

  You may be interested in Fraidycat. Per the description: > Fraidycat is a desktop app or browser extension for Firefox or Chrome. I use it to follow people (hundreds) on whatever platform they choose - Twitter, a blog, YouTube, even on a public TiddlyWiki. This doesn't solve the problem of discoverability, but it solves half of what you described. https://fraidyc.at/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What do you consider to be the best foss RSS reader that has full article in-app reading (like feeder) and keyword based filtering (like readify or sparss decsync) and doesn't require you to have your own server to host?

  Maybe Fluent Reader in combination with Feebin. Good thing it's available on all platforms and for me the biggest pro is that you can read the whole article, also without leaving the app. Source: over 2 years ago
