Fluent Reader for Linux is a gorgeous RSS feed that has many view options that are simple and elegant in execution. Reminds me of Reader5 for macOS but instead of costing $10 it’s completely free.

    I have been using this combined with Fluent Reader Lite for Android and a self-hosted FreshRSS-server to sync my feeds. Just recently found a workflow that works well for me: I will browse my feeds on my phone once in a while (very productive bathroom breaks…), showing only unread stories. I star any story I want to read later, mark the rest as read. With Fluent Reader on Linux set to only show starred, and I can then pick and choose whatever story I want to read from there on a bigger screen. Whenever I go some days without checking, I will just mark all spammy news outlets as read without checking the 400 unread stories.

      If you haven’t tried it, I absolutely love FeedMe on android it works 1000 times better than Fluent Reader with FreshRSS. I wish it was ported to Debian!

        Cool, I’ll check it out. I am not experiencing any issues with Fluent Reader with my use case though.
