Me too. It does not look nice, but the filter possibilities are great. You only see the feed entries you want to see.

Fiery Feeds is my absolute favourite. I have used it for several years. Free to Use or for 10 USD to go pro. it syncs between your Apple machines.

Thanks for all the responses!
I’m trying NewsExplorer + Goodlinks as my setup right now. It seems a bit overkill, but I’ll for about one week to evaluate

That’s per year (a subscription) I think?
(Not a one-time purchase or the Agenda model)
Reeder Classic + GoodLinks. Mainly because they’re both one time payments and everything I’ve tried in between hasn’t been as simple. GoodLinks also has a solid Safari extension for saving links! I also feel “odd” for want of a better word paying for an RSS application monthly. That’s just a personal thing though!
I’ve been using NetNewsWire with iCloud for a while after Reeder Classic (with iCloud and previously FreshRSS) had a few minor bugs (e.g. article view blank until force quit). I still have Reeder around (user since version 2!) for its Read Later feature. I’ll be checking out GoodLinks and News Explorer. I like NetNewsWire but miss the swipe-iness of Reeder (there’s a feature request for pull up to mark all as read). Interested to see the *OS 26 updates and version 7.
I’m using NetNewsWire with Miniflux as the backend. At around ~300 feeds I ran up against known limitations with NNW+iCloud, and it started making sense to have a standalone service for polling and sync. Saw a big improvement in NNW performance and battery usage after I switched.
The downside of switching to Miniflux is now I don’t have anything stopping me from subbing to more feeds, and in the six months since I’ve added 100 more

Hahahaha, that’s a problem! 
Why do you chose NNW over other apps?
This is the way
I tried miniflux but encountered some bugs the dev didn’t want to fix. I went with FreshRSS instead. I think the miniflux bug was fixed recently after ~3 years.
Inoreader as my backend. I use Reeder Classic on iOS & iPadOS. I use Netnewswire on the MacOS.
I was a longtime Feedbin user but I tried Inoreader last year and love the web version for when I’m at work on my Windows computer. Feedbin needs a better web version but I check back often as I love what the developer has been adding to Feedbin to make it more attractive.
I just love RSS and could not imagine reading the web without it. Will always be an RSS power user.

Interesting. Why don’t you use Reeder Classic on Mac too?
I just love Netnewswire on the Mac. Super fast, well designed, and just my kind of app. Unfortunately the iOS Netnewswire app leaves a lot of things to be desired.
I try almost every new RSS app and service that launches and I change up my workflow often to make sure it’s optimized for my liking. Right now this is my favorite setup. Don’t ask me about my Read-it-Later workflow.

I tried to use Tapestry (backed it and everything), but I found that I wasn’t very good at setting up timelines to use consistently enough, and the “inbox” style of Classic Reeder was a better fit for me.
I still use Tapestry for more “ephemeral” stuff, like reddit posts, but if it’s an site like 512 or one of the football blogs I follow, seeing it in Reeder makes it easier for me to keep up with, and then it’s easier to find it later if I want to because I’m not scrolling through countless posts trying to track it down again.
NetNewsWire is nostalgic for me. Unfortunately, it doesn’t go well with some sites I read…
And ok, we are not talking about Read-it-Later
If anyone is using Tiny Tiny RSS it’s time to look for an alternative (or clone the sources):
This thread prompted me to revisit my RSS setup.
I’ve been using Reeder (now Reeder Classic) for years and, while it’s served me well, it’s unclear how much attention it will get from the developer in the future. And the current version crashes fairly regularly.
I recently started using NetNewsWire on Mac, iPhone and iPad. I appreciate the speed, reliability and simplicity. While it’s serving me well in its current form, I’m looking forward to NetNewsWire 7 for Mac and iOS.
I’m using the free version of Inoreader to sync my feeds. I paid for this service for years, but found I wasn’t using some of the more advanced features and decided to go back to the free version, for now at least.
I send longer posts off to Readwise Reader to read later, where they’re consolidated with articles that came in from other sources, including email newsletters. I like Reader’s feature set and appreciate having a table of contents, text-to-speech features and integrations with other apps and services.

That’s amazing. NetNewsWire 7 looks amazing on these screenshots.
My problem with Reeder Classic is the same as yours: supposing ir won’t be getting so much attention in the future. New Reeder is beautiful, but look too much like a social media scroll for me…

I use NetNewsWire on iPad, mac and iPhone.
I don’t know of a way to access the full text NYT articles in NetNewsWire (I get the “Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker” message as well). However, it does work to open the article in Readwise Reader. Also, if I choose “Open in Browser” in the Share Sheet on my iPhone, the article opens in the NYTimes app.
