This could be an interesting app. I do have a favorite RSS reader, but this one 
could be good if it’s accessible and not too cluttered.
Reeder launches new app that unites RSS with video, audio, and social feeds
9to5Mac  /  Ryan Christoffel


Reeder, the 15-year-old RSS reader for Apple devices, just launched a major new 
version that takes the app in entirely new directions. The new Reeder brings 
together RSS feeds with all kinds of other data sources. Podcasts, YouTube, 
Mastodon and Bluesky feeds, subreddits, and more can now live alongside your 
RSS feeds.

RSS app goes beyond just news articles

The new Reeder positions itself less as a classic RSS app, and more as a sort 
of RSS for the future.

That starts with the variety of data sources you can add to the app:

RSS feed
Podcast
YouTube
Mastodon
Bluesky
Micro.blog
Glass
Flickr
Comic Strip
Reddit
This group of sources makes Reeder a one-stop hub for all different kinds of 
feeds.

But Reeder isn’t just adding new options to an existing RSS model. It’s also 
fundamentally changing how an RSS app traditionally works.

There are two big ways that this is evident.

No unread counts: The concept of articles or other content types being ‘read’ 
or ‘unread’ doesn’t exist in the new app. Instead, it works more like a social 
media app with a unified timeline. Reeder keeps track of where you are in your 
timeline, so you don’t miss anything.
iCloud sync only: Since Reeder is syncing all of these various content types in 
a single timeline, it relies on a single sync source: iCloud. There’s no 
support for other, third-party RSS syncing services here.
The new app won’t be for everyone, but if you’re interested in a new take on 
RSS, it’s a brilliant take on the app category.

Some other highlights:

Shared feeds let you share one of your tags via a public feed. This feed will 
auto-update even after being shared.
Links can be saved and organized into the app for reading later, so there’s no 
need for a separate read-later app.
If you’re interested in learning more, Devon Dundee has an excellent in-depth 
review over on MacStories.

Because the new Reeder is such a departure from the norm, the old Reeder app 
has been kept around and renamed Reeder Classic. Both apps will continue to 
receive ongoing development.

Reeder is a free download on the App Store with many features included, and its 
premium subscription is available for $1/month or $10/year.
