I use Elfeed for Emacs, as just one small part of Emacs's slow conquest of other programs on my computer. Before that, I used Liferea, which is a nice standalone feed reader.
Elfeed lets me assign each feed in my list different tags, so I can do basic filtering for what I want to read at any given time. I generally avoid subscribing to any high-density feeds like news sites. I prefer to have maybe a dozen or so links per day that definitely interest me.
I use morss.it to fetch the full text from feeds that only provide a brief summary.
I was briefly surprised, and then immediately thereafter totally unsurprised that Emacs can be your RSS reader.
I am using Feedbro extension for Firefox to follow a few anime bloggers, Ars Technica and Hackernews.
Liferea, in Linux. Simple interface, no fuss, you can split your RSS feeds into folders.
Saw this one recommended here yesterday and I'm going to give it a try:
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

I use Feedbin as my syncing backend and the excellent Reeder on iPhone and iPad to read the feeds.
Thunderbird
Thunderbird; nice and old-fashioned, does everything you want.
I use the RSS reader in thunderbird, keeps the emails and news in the same place
