Ask HN: Anyone uses Feed aggregator anymore?

1 pointsby imirzadehover 2 years ago
I have always used feed aggregators&#x2F;readers to keep up with the news.<p>I used to use Feedly up to 5 years ago. But then it really started to bother me because I had no control over my feed.<p>So, for the past 5 years, as a side project, I have been working on a good feed reader app with multiple iterations. The first version was a wrapper on top of Feedly API, the second one was an RSS reader from scratch, and the latest one is a full-featured one that supports many sources (RSS&#x2F;Twitter&#x2F;Reddit&#x2F;Youtube&#x2F;Medium&#x2F;Newsletters in the same feed).<p>I have been using&#x2F;improving the latest version on a daily basis for the past year and I really thought it&#x27;s awesome.<p>So I polished it to share with friends (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mofeed.news) but it seems like no one is interested and they don&#x27;t care about how they get their news.<p>I&#x27;m okay with this since I wanted it for myself anyways. It&#x27;s just odd to me that my friends are not interested.<p>Now I&#x27;m very curious if Feed aggregators are dead or not. So I appreciate your opinion :)

not dead: I recently switched to <i>newsboat</i> from manual surfing and am very happy with the time saved.
