@ingrid Longstanding and happy feedbin.com customer here.

@maxfenton @ingrid Same as Max here, but curious about Readwise/Reader (I believe @kissane might have some notes on that combo)

@maxfenton @ingrid Also +1 to Ethan’s note about routing email newsletters to your RSS reader

@markllobrera @maxfenton @ingrid I’m a huge fan of Readwise Reader, but it’s a Pocket replacement rather than for feeds, although it probably hooks to RSS as well

@kissane @markllobrera yeah, I went with Raindrop as my 📌 reference replacement, and still use Pocket as a “someday/maybe” and it’s easy enough to share to either/both

@kissane @markllobrera @maxfenton @ingrid I’m using Reader for both read later and RSS, and really like it. The annotation abilities are top. (I’ve also got it hooked up to Obsidian so my highlights and notes roll in there, which is pretty sweet.)

@aworkinglibrary @markllobrera @maxfenton @ingrid Yeah, the annotation in RW Reader is incredibly good, that’s my main use case. It also does DRM-free epub and PDF and rolls into Notion, it’s everything I ever wanted for all text once they get their search fixed up.

@kissane It is p nice that there is a blossoming of new tools and also that some of the good old ones still work.

@aworkinglibrary @kissane @markllobrera @maxfenton @ingrid Can you tell me more about Reeder’s annotation features? I can’t find anything about it.

@trey I think there was a mixup and they’re all named similarly. Reeder (two e’s) doesn’t have annotations, but Readwise Reader does: https://readwise.io/read

@ingrid newsblur - browser on laptop, android app elsewhere.

@ingrid I like Feeder on Android—really simple but does the job.
