RSS is still pretty great
NetNewsWire is excellent. Clean, responsive, blends into the desktop, and doesn't have memory leak issues like so many macOS RSS readers do. I wish all software could be like it.

Show HN: Twine – Gorgeous open source multiplatform RSS app
And like with most multiplatform apps, it doesn't look native at all on iOS. I prefer my current combination of: https://netnewswire.com + https://miniflux.app
Both open source too.

Reddit may force Apollo and third-party clients to shut down, asking for $20M per year API fee
+1 for NetNewsWire. No pushes for engagement, no upsells for premium features, just a simple and rock solid app that does exactly what you want and does it well. I would 100% pay for it as it’s a very high quality app, but the developers would prefer happy users to focus elsewhere.

As a Reddit beta tester, keep your expectations to the bare minimum
I’ve completely replaced my Twitter habits with a good ol RSS reader app. https://github.com/Ranchero-Software/NetNewsWire they have an iOS app.

NetNewsWire: Free and Open Source RSS Reader for Mac and iOS
If you are using Miniflux for your RSS syncing you can already use it in NetNewsWire too now that Miniflux supports the Google Reader API. Apparently it will be exposed in a more obvious way in the Account dialog in the next version (6.2).

Localsend: Open-Source Airdrop Alternative
I've been using https://snapdrop.net/, and if it's not down it works great! I think it only needs to be up as a signaling server, right?

PSA: LocalSend is the easiest way to copy files to your deck wirelessly

FOSS apps to send files between Android and iOS?
Snapdrop - Since it has a web version, this was the only file transfer solution that I actually tested with people outside of my social circle. At least half the time, it's a gamble whether it will work or not. The connection tends to drop in the middle of the process. I've tried both the app and the web version, but unfortunately, neither of them is reliable enough to save me from the awkward glances of those who want to help me by sending notes, video presentations, and other materials.
