Is Surf the future RSS Reader to rule them all?

anonymous549: > I might be in the minority on this but these all-in-one apps just don’t appeal to me. I like my apps to have one specific purpose. I just want my RSS reader to be an RSS reader. If I want to, for example, watch a youtube video I will use Grayjay (probably a bad example in this case lol) or one of the many other youtube specific apps. ch0ccyra1n: > All of those, YouTube, Mastodon, Bluesky, etc. can all be read/watched through RSS feeds already, so I don’t see the point. Am I missing something here? Both of these arguments are completely fair. The thing is, many people are drawn to certain apps simply because they offer a better user experience compared to others. Nobody said that you have to use Surf or any similar app to aggregate your social media account. You can opt out of that. However, I have yet to see a cross-platform FOSS RSS reader that I am impressed by from a UI and UX point of view. I am frankly still waiting for it. I haven’t had the chance to try Surf, or any of the other apps some people have mentioned, but I am eager to, just to see if they offer a better UX. I just recently got back into using an RSS reader, after many years, and frankly I missed it. Having to remember to visit certain sites for news is exhausting and impractical. I’m happy to be back, but I am looking for a better UX, and Surf, Fread or Flare could be it. I’ll soon find out. Menkork: > I personally am not very active on Mastodoon or Bluesky. Like Twitter, Mastodon and BlueSky help me keep up with news I am interested in. Menkork: > The things that I need feeds from would be the unholy Trinity of Meta, X, and Tiktok for my own workflow. Why Meta and TikTok?
