Some of my coworkers were talking about using RSS to read blogs, which made some of the younger folks in our team ask what it is and why we keep using it.

Some still use iPods to avoid subscriptions and streaming services, my favorite was one of our sysadmins who showed me Gopher.

I’m curious about others though, thanks!

Do you pay for yours, or what? I tried to get into RSS, but I wasn't in the mood to pay for it.

I like Feeder as a free Android option

I've been a paying customer of Reeder app and NetNewsWire before that. I believe NNW might be free now. These are on Apple platforms.

It is free and open source, it’s my main RSS app on Mac / iOS, and I downloaded Feeder from F-Droid for Android
