@chriswei i imagine it varies depending on the app. any reader that tries to recommend feeds to you is collecting *some* data, but you’d have to check the privacy policy to see what they do with it.

mine does try to recommend feeds, but doesn’t sell the data.

@chriswei there are also a lot of self-hosted options for RSS readers, so that’s a solid option for someone worried about tracking

As for RSS clients, I've been using Mozilla Thunderbird which handles email AND RSS feeds.
