No one has mentioned NewsBlur yet. It's fantastic as an RSS reader, and provides intelligence training (filtering) for only subjects you might be interested in, allowing you to tame high-rate RSS feeds quite easily: http://newsblur.com/
NewsBlur is excellent, and a great way to collate all my feeds across categories (quant finance, ML/data science, CS/tech, science, humanities). I have been a happy subscriber since 2013, and I use it on an approximately daily basis.
When Reader shut down I migrated to newsblur, vowing to pay for things I really use, so RSS never died for me :)
Thanks for the reminder. I just recovered my account and I'll give a try to the intelligent filtering.
Tip: if the RSS doesn't have proper tagging, you can select words in the title you wan't to use as a match :-)
Can this be self-hosted?
Click on the Github icon on bottom of the page and find out ;)
It is not really meant for self hosting.
Newsblur is build to scale and basicly needs 3 servers/envirements (app, db, task) and also Sentry, Redis, Celery, RabbitMQ, Postresql, MongoDB and Elasticsearch running.
You certainly can - the code is on GitHub with install instructions. I considered self-hosting but it's cheaper to just pay the yearly subscription fee. Also I feel good about paying for a service that respects me by opening the source and by giving me the ability to export if I want.
