Introduction The "best" feed reader is largely a matter of individual preference. There are many good ones. Most of them, including the best, are free like browsers. The one that matches the way you want to work is best for you. :-) No matter which reader you choose, it should give you some way to back up your feeds, preferably as an OPML file. You may also be able to use your OPML file to move to another reader, although the formats may not be compatible.

Feed readers are amazing tools and they’ve been around for a very long time. They used to be built into every major web browser. However, the internet evolved according to the demands of companies built around advertising. Web feeds weaken the protective network effects that keep people coming back to centralized social media apps and sites. Haven wants to recapture feeds as a tool to help you connect with the people closest to you using technology that you control.

If you have Haven installed, there’s a new “Read” link on the top of the page that you can check out. It’s only visible to you on your own Haven. If you want to see what it’s like, try it out on the free Haven Demo.
