My RSS Workflow in 2026

Recently, a reader of the blog emailed me asking about my RSS workflow, specifically my use of both Feedbin and Readwise. I assume this question relates to a blogpost I published in September 2024:

My RSS Workflow

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication

Anyway, the following is my response, noting my workflow is remained the same:

Hello XX

Trust you are well. 

I have been using Feedbin forever. Its fast and I like its straight forward approach, to the extent that I only use the feedbin web app on all platforms. I do not use any third party RSS apps for Feedbin. 

Readwise Reader came into the picture because I was already subscribed to Readwise so reader was included with that subscription. The way I use Readwise Reader is for when I have long blogposts to read, I star it on Feedbin and it shows up on Readwise which allows me read it and my highlights are saved in Readwise. 

I have over 700 feeds on Feedbin which I think will just be too much for readwise. 

So in summary, Feedbin for triage and Readwise Reader for reading.

Can I move everything in Readwise? Probably but I like using both which have their respective strengths. 

Hope that helps. 

Wishing you a great day. Today its expected to be sunny in Melbourne so I looking forward to getting out of the house. 

Another reason, I am posting my response on my blog is because it is my way of documenting the interactions that come about only because I have this blog. I enjoy communicating with people, and it is great that people reach out. Please continue doing so..

It is mothers day in Australia today... Wishing well to all mothers on this beautiful planet of ours 😸
