You might not be aware but Lemmy has RSS built into it. I just noticed myself so I wanted to check out the current state of RSS clients and well, nothing seems to be quite what I’m after.
What RSS clients out there are worth looking at? I notice several have self-hosted server solutions which is interesting. I don’t care if it’s free, open source, paid or whatever though, I just want a good experience.
I’m using the opinionated and self-hosted reader Miniflux in combination with a browser plugin for Chrome. This way I see the amount of unread RSS items and I can either click them to open them or just mark them as read. Not sure if it’s for everyone, but I like it a lot :) Just figured it should get a mention here.
miniflux is great. If you don’t want to self host, the developer offers a hosted version that is very reasonably priced and I like to think it contributes to the development of the software.

I’ve replaced ttrss with Miniflux and I’m very happy with it. No need for a mobile app, the web interface is just fine on both desktop and phone.
