I've tried Raven but it's archived and not maintained anymore, Fluent Reader and Feeds both of which doesn't feel smooth at all. Any recommendations? Preferably desktop and not a self-hosted service.

I like Read You. It integrates nicely with FreshRSS, too.

My personal favourite is fluent reader

[–] griefstricken@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Not very good for organizing more than a few feeds

[–] cyberwolfie@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 hours ago

How so? I have many feeds oeganized under different groups, and that works well for me. What functionality would you have wanted?

This is the way.

Sort of the opposite of what you asked, but adding here to increase variety

I just use miniflux, self hosted is easy if you have docker-compose and you could access it from your browser locally. It also works great on mobile.

In case you like feature-rich software, QuiteRSS is good.

Newsflash is the best from all I tested and even works nice on mobile.

[–] IrritableOcelot@beehaw.org 1 points 1 hour ago

Seconded. Newsflash does everything I need and looks pretty smooth.

Do you mean it works on a Linux phone or is it available on Android?

[–] Dalaryous@lemmy.ml 2 points 16 hours ago

Linux phone. UI is very good there.

I've tried them all. He's right. It's the best. It's very reliable.

I like FreshRSS in a container, works great from a browser, and you can hit it from your phone on the loo...

[–] Trent@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

RSSGuard for most things, newsboat for keeping track of software releases on github.

[–] Yingwu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

RSS Guard was actually great. I love the more old-school but super functional UI. I don't need any fancy stuff, just stuff that works. Awesome tip.

[–] NathanUp@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 day ago

I use RSS Guard

If a firefox add-on is okay: Brief
