Reeder is the best right now, but author disappears for a long stretch of time without updates, then large release, few bug-fix releases and then again quiet time. Despite the fact he promised more frequent updates recently — he's been silent for a long time to think Reeder is dead. It's been crashing a lot lately, so not sure what to expect.

I think this is to be expected, since the app is not subscription-based.

We should all switch to subscriptions for apps that we use seriously, to avoid this exact problem.

It’s an RSS reader. I don’t expect anything but bug fixes, because I’m not sure there are any new features I’d care about. Reeder does it’s job and does it well.

My only complaint would be I’d prefer to use the native share sheet, not have to go through the Reeder one to get to the native one. But that’s not a huge problem. And I think Reeder may predate useful share sheets in iOS.
