In their own words
CommaFeed
CommaFeed is a free personal RSS reader inspired by Google Reader, available through a public instance or self-hosted deployment. Its responsive interface works on mobile and desktop, with four layouts and light and dark themes. Readers can import and export OPML files and set rules to mark articles as read automatically. It supports keyboard shortcuts, right-to-left feeds, and more than 25 languages. CommaFeed provides a REST API plus Fever and Google Reader APIs for native mobile apps, and lists push notifications and a browser extension. Self-hosted installations support H2, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MariaDB; Docker images and downloadable packages include Linux and Windows builds. The public instance costs nothing and allows 1,000 feeds per account, up to 500 entries per feed retained for 365 days. Public feeds are fetched every 10 minutes to 24 hours. Feeds over 5 MB are ignored, and push notifications are disabled on the public instance. Accounts inactive for 30 days do not have feeds refreshed until the user interacts again.
Inoreader
Inoreader brings websites, creators, newsletters, and other sources into a personalized newsfeed for collecting articles and discovering content. It supports RSS and web feeds, social listening, podcasts, and Google News alerts. Monitoring feeds follow people, brands, companies, trends, and events, with search in 30 languages. Rules and filters organize items with tags and folders or automate actions such as applying tags and sending push notifications. Inoreader Intelligence can summarize articles, identify named entities, process podcasts and videos, suggest tags, and generate reports. Integrations include IFTTT, Zapier, and n8n, with exports to Pocket, Evernote, OneNote, Google Drive, Dropbox, and Instapaper. The Free plan allows 150 RSS feed subscriptions. Pro costs €6.67 a month when billed annually, or 8,99 € billed monthly, and includes 2,500 RSS subscriptions, 20 web feeds, and 20 newsletter feeds. Pro guarantees a maximum refresh interval of once every hour. A 14-day trial requires no credit card. API access for other uses requires Pro and a sales quote.
