And how do you optimize your workflow based on the feeds? Extra thanks if you are working as an academic researcher gathering feeds from different journals

On Android ReadYou is sooo nice looking. Still missing some features.

Nextcloud News

Does well enough and I use Nextcloud for various other things already.
So no real reason to use anything else.

I use Elfeed for Emacs, as just one small part of Emacs's slow conquest of other programs on my computer. Before that, I used Liferea, which is a nice standalone feed reader.

Elfeed lets me assign each feed in my list different tags, so I can do basic filtering for what I want to read at any given time. I generally avoid subscribing to any high-density feeds like news sites. I prefer to have maybe a dozen or so links per day that definitely interest me.

I use morss.it to fetch the full text from feeds that only provide a brief summary.

I use Reeder 5. It’s nice, no complaints.

Thunderbird; nice and old-fashioned, does everything you want.

I use the RSS reader in thunderbird, keeps the emails and news in the same place

I self-host FreshRSS. I'm pretty happy with it. It works well and you can add extensions to customize it if you need something particular. And I use the browser extension so I get notifications for new articles.

I used to use Feedly before. It was pretty alright, but I got annoyed by just how many things you needed to pay for

FreshRSS is solid. I hadn't heard of it until I saw it mentioned on lemmy, installed it, and I love it. The bookmarklet is great, too.
