I am looking for an RSS reader that is web based and preferably FOSS, I am trying to move from Vivaldi to Waterfox but I am using the Vivaldi RSS reader and need to switch to something else.

If you're ok self-hosting, I use www.freshrss.org

Why are you moving on from Vivaldi?

[–] librekitty@lemmy.today 9 points 3 weeks ago

vivaldi is proprietary, bonus evil points for being chromium-based

I've been using Feeder https://f-droid.org/packages/com.nononsenseapps.feeder/ Works for my needs, but I haven't explored much.

I ahve used capy reader on android, available on Fdroid. Currently, I am using Nextcloud news as my RSS, works everywhere, web clients, android clients, all FOSS.

I've been on FreshRSS for over a year. Works well even on shared hosting. https://www.freshrss.org/

This is a Mac app and not web-based

It is also (as far as I can tell) proprietary
