Personally I keep it syncing off TTRSS for filtering and automatic actioning on certain feed entries, but that aint everyone's cup of tea. I'd like to think NNW at least covers most people's use cases whether standalone or relying off another service to aggregate.
RSS’ death is real - 15 years ago, almost every news site had a RSS feed, some had several ones. Today? RSS feed is rare.
So if you want to make news feed from news sites, you have to use parsing their html code, and ofc everybody has its own structure. JS powered sites are painful ones.
Nice! I'm also around 2000 feeds in my reader, carefully selected over a couple of years. Only difference: I always click through to the website to read an article.
Now in the process of slowly making RSS my only social feed. Have a hard time of leaving Youtube, but once I embedded the videos of the channels I follow in my RSS reader I see a way of not getting annoyed by the recommendation algorithm on their website anymore.
I (re)discovered RSS a few months ago via NetNewsWire, and it’s so calming and empowering to curate one’s own feed.
Rumors of RSS’ death are greatly exaggerated.

Just look at it, NNW is still using the same great design.

It’s still a work in progress, so treat this as an early preview before I submit it to Show HN. Feedback and criticism are welcome.
I have many more ideas, but I don't have that much free time to implement all of it (even with Claude Code). But it serves me very well for now
