Ask HN: Google Reader Alternative?

7 pointsby marilynover 15 years ago
I switched from Bloglines to Google Reader about a year ago, and prefer the efficiency of Reader, but still feel bogged down with Reader limited organization methods (only one level folders).<p>What do you use for your feedreader?

I use Feverº by Shaun Inman. It requires that you have a hosting account somewhere, but has an interesting twist to it:<p>You set up your subscriptions as either "Kindling" or "Sparks". Kindling are your essential feeds and Sparks are your supplementary feeds. So Sparks just kind of sit in the background (though you can read them too), but when enough of them start pointing at an interesting story, that story becomes "Hot" and is prioritized by "temperature", kind of like Techmeme does, but for your personal feeds. It has completely wiped out my "Unread Items" issue, because that number isn't really surfaced in the UI. And with the Hot items, you're unlikely to miss something important.<p><a href="http://feedafever.com/" rel="nofollow">http://feedafever.com/</a>

I really like Brief, a Firefox addon. I like minimalism.<p>It has folders.
