FeboRSS
— Product Description
Feed reading without distractions, with everything you need and nothing more.
Optimized for Reddit Feeds
FeboRSS is the only RSS reader that truly understands Reddit feeds. Reddit limits unauthenticated requests to one per minute, making refreshing multiple subreddits an interminable wait. FeboRSS solves this: with your custom feed credentials (reddit.com/prefs/feeds), the delay between each subreddit drops from 65 seconds to just 3 seconds. But it's not just about speed—we also make sure every post looks its best: images are displayed as clear thumbnails, Reddit and YouTube videos have previews, and external links show a preview of the content. No empty, context-free feeds: if a Reddit post has multimedia, FeboRSS displays it. If you read Reddit via RSS, FeboRSS is designed for you.
