• For my Mastodon feed, so I don’t have to open yet another app
• For my Youtube and Nebula subscriptions, same
• For a few FB pages & others that post events, same
• For my Lemmy feed, same
• For all my news feeds (curated, usually) for a quick look at everything
• For my friends’ posts so I know I won’t miss a single one

I currently use the premium plan for Inoreader. I like tinyRSS, just didn’t do it for me; I’ve been using RSS since Google Reader.

For RSS feed recommendations you can also take inspiration from this post: https://beehaw.org/post/618286

Since I can’t stand twitter, and since so many of my local groups use twitter, I use FreshRSS (self-hosted) to list new posts via Nitter’s RSS feature.

I also use RSS for Lemmy content and a few Reddit communities I still follow (until they show up on Lemmy) via old.reddit.com.

And some updates from YouTube channels or software release notes.

Really, my goal is to consolidate things, so I’m not checking 10 different sources every day.

after Google shut down Reader, I took my OPML (list of subscriptions), and switched to a FOSS local RSS reader; import my OPML and carry on. I’ve switched software occasionally; right now I’m happy with Feeder (from f-droid).

Getting my news is something I care about too much to entrust to someone’s server; I’m happy with it purely local.

I’ve been using RSS since before Google Reader was a thing. It’s a fantastic way to monitor new papers in journals as almost all journals have been providing a feed since forever. I could go with a self-hosted option but I just ended up using Inoreader although I will probably migrate again. They used to have some entry level plans (they call it supporter plan) at some €20/yr but it looks like they are no longer available for new users.

I’ve never thought of using it for video subscriptions. Great idea to have everything all in once place.
