The 'Simple RSS Feed Reader' module is based on the same feed parsing engine that powers, the most popular Joomla news aggregator in the Joomla Community.

I mark the news feeds as read about once a week regardless of whether I’ve gotten to it or not because most of it has a shelf life and if there was anything important I probably heard about it on some podcast.You can even publish multiple feeds at the same time (meaning in the same module instance) and have them display combined! If it’s worth keeping for reference or to read again, it goes from Instapaper to my Pinboard Archive. I skim most posts, read some others in NetNewsWire, but if an individual post is long and I want to do more than skim, it goes straight to Instapaper. Most of those also send me Newsletters which I have automatically forwarded to my Instapaper account from my Inbox. I use RSS mainly for blogs and webcomics, but I have a couple of news sites loaded in there as well. The current v5 series of releases is a very neat client, has a good team led by Brent Simmons developing it, and while I’m not sure what the feature is called, has a neat reader mode that can load the whole post even in partial-post feeds. I’ve used some version of NetNewsWire for close to 15 years now. NetNewsWire is my preferred client, but this is as much out of complacency as anything else.

I like the clear cut relationship and expectations of being a customer, not merely an entitled user with a free account, and I like that Feedbin is effectively platform agnostic and not tied to a specific client as long as you have a client that supports it.

A paid subscription, I forgot what I paid, but $50/year I want to say and 2.

You haven’t mentioned what you want to use RSS for, so I‘ll try to provide some context as to how I use it.įeedbin account linked to NetNewsWire on my iPad, iPhone and Mac.
