An RSS reader that I'm happy with. yeah, I've tried pretty much all of them.
Completely agree. Looking for one myself.
Would you have any thoughts on what Feedly could do better?
Here's what Feedly could do better. It could strip down. When I look for an RSS reader, I don't look for something that looks like the front page of HN.
I do look for a simple list of feeds, with folders. That's it, nothing more. That's all I need. When I open a single feed, the articles display.
Of course having filtering is nice, but not necessary. There are plenty of services out there that will do that for me. I don't read feeds based on anyone's curation, including Feedly's. I read them based on whatever I'm interested in reading that day.
