Show HN: My all-nighter project to find the best Google Reader alternative
Am I the only one who just wants a list of updated articles and possibly an unread count? I don't want social in my RSS. I don't want to "discover" feeds. I don't want to be told what to read. I don't want to follow people.For me, the whole point of RSS is that I find a site I like, I add it to my list, and I'm told when there's a new article.I've tried several alternatives in the last 24 hours, and most of them ignore my actual feeds and give me a whole lot of machine learned articles I couldn't care less about.It's not always the topic that's interesting, it's the writing style, or some kind of imaginary connection I've made with the site or author.If I want to 'discover' articles, I'll browse HN or Reddit. If it's something I think I'll want to keep updated about, that's when I add it to my RSS.
