Which RSS Readers do you use and why?
Thunderbird.
Because I use it anyway as e-mail client and PIM.
I always thought Thunderbird was email only… So it does RSS too? I’m surprised. I’ll check it out again when I fix my computer in two weeks or less. Using a Raspberry Pi to browse the web now.
i don’t think i knew that either. good to know 
QuiteRSS (Qt)
Simple with everything you need from a RSS Reader.

QuiteRSS - allows flexible configuration of folders, feeds and refresh times, minimises to system tray nicely (on Windows) and has a nice minimal display of unread news that pops up from the system tray, saving having to open the reader for trivial news.
Thank you for the quick summary…
I will try QuiteRSS in a couple weeks or less.
I use the online service Newsblur. All you need is a browser on the computer, but they also have Android and IOS apps. It syncs across all your devices which is what I like. There is a free tier as well as a paid one with more options (worth the low cost IMO).

It’s FOSS has an article on same topic: https://itsfoss.com/feed-reader-apps-linux/
Personally, I use Feedly. It is a browser plugin and available for mobile devices.

Thanks for that article. I read it. Good information. One question I have was not answered by the article. Do any of the 5 mentioned in the article have an undelete option? RSSOwl had one and I used it quite a lot.
Not sure of that. You may try it and see if they have that option.
