The new Reeder<\/a> is out!<\/p>

A note to Reeder Classic users:\nFor this release, I’ve tried to cover any questions you might have about the new Reeder and Reeder Classic in the FAQ<\/a>.<\/p>

There’s no pressure to upgrade. As mentioned before, both apps will coexist.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n

Devon Dundee<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The best word to describe the new Reeder is “ambitious.” Its purpose is not just to be your RSS reader, but your inbox for keeping up with feeds of many different kinds from various sources across the Internet – text from websites, sure, but also videos on YouTube, audio from podcasts, posts on social media, and more. It’s a one-stop shop for the feeds you follow online, collecting them together into a single timeline that you can seamlessly browse across all of your devices.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

This concept—like Tapestry—doesn’t really appeal to me. But I’m probably not a typical user. I like that they’re experimenting in this space and that Reeder Classic is sticking around.<\/p>\n\n

Matt Birchler<\/a>:<\/p>\n

What concerned me is that a new app that didn’t click for me had taken over the name of the app I loved. It felt like the app I loved was being put into a legacy status<\/em> with the “classic” moniker. “Reeder Classic remains a product in our lineup,”<\/a> if you will. Like I said, there aren’t a bunch of features I hope are added to Reeder Classic, so I’m fine if it goes on the back-burner, I just hope it continues to get support for the latest operating systems so I can keep using it how I do now for many years to come.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Dave Rahardja<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Maybe I’m not getting it, but it no longer has the concept of read\/unread blog posts; everything just…hangs out there forever. It also makes it very difficult to read the content in a web browser; you used to be able to press B to open an article in Safari, but now it’s a click on the share arrow, then Open, with no keyboard shortcuts.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Rui Carmo<\/a>:<\/p>\n

And the new Reeder just doesn’t do what I need it to. In fact, it doesn’t even do what it tries<\/em> to do in a way that I find useful:<\/p>\n
