RSS readers allow you to collect the articles of specific sources in one app, making it a lot easier to find the content you’re interested in without crawling through a lot of noise. RSS (which may stand for Really Simple Syndication, Rich Site Summary, or one of several other possibilities — nobody seems sure) has been around a while, having been first developed in 1999, although it wasn’t more widely adopted until a few years later.
It’s sad how there’s basically no good local RSS readers anymore, only paid subscription based ones or self-host solutions. At least on Windows that is.
On Windows, I’ve been very happy with RSSOwlnix, even though it hasn’t seen any changes in 2 years.
Fluent Reader. I use it with freshrss myself but it is just as good using it fully local.
Fluent Reader would be perfect if it could start on log on and run in the background, but the dev seems to not care about that so…
