Addendum to last post https://ludovic.chabant.com/devblog/2019/07/04/no-algorithms/: the only “algorithm” I ever wanted in an RSS reader is the ability to separate “high frequency” and “low frequency” feeds, so irregular blogs don’t get drowned by big websites. Fiery Feeds, for instance, does that.
