Hey folks, I was inspired by Chris Titus Tech’s video on using RSS readers as an alternative to browse the Internet.

I love this idea and want to incorporate it into my mobile routine but haven’t found a reader with a search function.

I’m currently using Feeder which I love except for two things.

  • “Mark as Read”/ reading articles eliminates them from my feed with no way to retrieve them
  • no search function.

FOSS is a plus. I would love to hear your recommendations!

    I also use Feeder, and have been using it for about a year now. There is no way to delete a single post without deleting the entire feed. What is probably happening is that you have disabled “Read” articles in the filter:

    <details><summary>Alt Text</summary>Screenshot of Feeder main screen. Shows filter menu opened displaying checkboxes “Unread”, “Saved”, “Recently Read”, and “Read”. All options are checked.</details>

      Gosh you’re exactly right! I had “recently read” checked which sounds self explanatory but the two work slightly differently. This gets me one step closer at least.
