Using an RSS reader app, you can create your own custom feeds for news and information, accessing them all through a clutter-free, reader-friendly view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>RSS can be overwhelming, which may explain why it&#8217;s never gone mainstream except as an underlying technology for podcasts. But as I seek out <a href=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/2024\/05\/07\/5-5-2024-ive-become-a-tech-hippie\/\">more enduring technologies that put users first<\/a>, I&#8217;ve found myself coming back to RSS and finding new ways to make the habit stick. With the right setup, it&#8217;s still one of the most empowering ways to control your online content consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pick a good RSS reader<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past, I\u2019ve bounced between <a href=\"feedly.com\/\">Feedly<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inoreader.com\">Inoreader<\/a> as my RSS readers of choice. Both offer robust free tiers\u2014you can follow up to 100 sources with Feedly, and up to 150 with Inoreader\u2014and are available on pretty much any device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"701\" src=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-1024x701.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-1024x701.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-768x526.jpg 768w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-1536x1051.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-100x68.jpg 100w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-150x103.jpg 150w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-200x137.jpg 200w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-450x308.jpg 450w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-600x411.jpg 600w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly-900x616.jpg 900w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedly.jpg 1816w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Feedly<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>But after examining various alternatives\u2014including ones you can <a href=\"https:\/\/freshrss.org\">host yourself<\/a>\u2014I&#8217;ve landed on using <a href=\"https:\/\/feedbin.com\">Feedbin<\/a> instead. While Feedly and Inoreader load up their interfaces with various doodads (AI summarization, text-to-speech, automatic highlights, and so on) Feedbin focuses on a great reading experience. That means having a minimalist menu system, nice fonts, and excellent article formatting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;d previously written off Feedbin because its mobile app is iOS-only, but then I realized the web version version works just as well on Android phones. If you use your browser&#8217;s &#8220;Add to Home Screen&#8221; function, you&#8217;ll even get a proper icon that loads a full-screen version of the site, just like a regular app. (There are various <a href=\"https:\/\/feedbin.com\/apps\">third-party Feedbin apps<\/a> for Android as well.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feedbin costs $5 per month or $50 per year after a 30-day, no-credit-card trial. To me it&#8217;s worth paying for as a way to feel invested in using it. But you can also look to alternatives, several of which are less expensive or entirely free. (The OpenRSS website has <a href=\"https:\/\/openrss.org\/rss-feed-readers\">a useful chart of options<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Start out slow<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-1024x658.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8186\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-1024x658.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-300x193.jpg 300w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-768x493.jpg 768w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-1536x987.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-100x64.jpg 100w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-150x96.jpg 150w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-200x129.jpg 200w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-450x289.jpg 450w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-600x386.jpg 600w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd-900x578.jpg 900w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinadd.jpg 1922w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve picked a reader app, you can start adding the websites you want to read. While this used to require hunting for specific RSS feed links, the readers I mentioned above will often locate the appropriate feed if you just add the address of whatever site you want to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now I will impart my most important advice: <strong>Don&#8217;t add a huge number of sources right away<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will be tempted, at the outset, to follow all your favorite sites, which is a recipe for feeling overloaded and quickly bouncing off the entire concept. RSS has no built-in algorithm to help you sift through everything, which is partly what makes it great, but it also means you must be judicious about which sources to include.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I suggest starting with two or three of your favorite websites or news sources. Add more if you feel like the flow of information is too slow, and consider removing those that are too noisy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, note that many sites allow you to follow just a subset of stories instead of everything. For instance, you can follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techhive.com\/author\/jnewman\">just my articles on TechHive<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tech\">just The Verge&#8217;s tech section<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Categorize like crazy<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>While you should be deliberate about adding new sources to your RSS reader, feel free to categorize them with reckless abandon. Most RSS readers let you sort news feeds into folders, which you can strategically employ to avoid getting overwhelmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My favorite new tactic\u2014one that&#8217;s really helping me stick with the RSS habit\u2014is to take post frequency into account for each category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, I have a &#8220;Tech News Firehose&#8221; category with high-volume sites such as Engadget, The Verge, and 9to5Mac. In this folder, I merely scan the headlines and cherry-pick what looks interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, I also have a &#8220;Cool Indie Blogs&#8221; feed with sources that post a few times per day at most. I relish these updates and tend to read them all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t be afraid to break things down into subcategories, either. Instead of creating a sports feed, for instance, I set one up specifically for Yankee baseball, with updates from MLB.com&#8217;s Yankees page, Pinstripes Nation, and the r\/nyyankees subreddit. I also made a category for streaming and cord cutting instead of trying to pick those stories out of the broader tech section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Get creative<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"585\" src=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-1024x585.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-1024x585.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-300x171.jpg 300w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-768x439.jpg 768w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-1536x877.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-100x57.jpg 100w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-150x86.jpg 150w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-200x114.jpg 200w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-450x257.jpg 450w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-600x343.jpg 600w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube-900x514.jpg 900w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feedbinyoutube.jpg 2029w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While you might associate RSS with news sites, it&#8217;s also a great way to follow other sources of information. Some examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Newsletters:<\/strong> Major newsletter platforms such as Substack and Beehiiv allow you to follow publications via RSS without having to subscribe via email. Alternatively, some RSS readers provide an email address you can use to sign up, or you can use <a href=\"https:\/\/kill-the-newsletter.com\">Kill the Newsletter<\/a> to convert newsletters into RSS feeds. (Feedbin&#8217;s email feature has <a href=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/2024\/03\/05\/3-5-2024-my-newsletter-reading-revelation\/\">replaced Omnivore for me<\/a>.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>YouTube channels:<\/strong> Adding YouTube channels to your RSS reader provides a calmer way to keep up with the creators you most care about.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Forums:<\/strong> You can follow Reddit groups via RSS, and many independent forums support RSS as well. I set up an entire category in Feedbin just for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guitars101.com\/forums\/lossless-audio-bootlegs.145\/\">this running list of live concert bootlegs<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>RSS is conducive to experimentation, as it&#8217;s easy to add, remove, and reorganize feeds as your interests change.
