Very excited about this move, I was thinking about which reader to go for in the past (https://blog.notmyhostna.me/sad-state-of-rss-on-the-mac/) and now settled on Reeder when they announced Reeder 4 last week and made the current version free.

I’ll probably switch to NNW when it’s out, the developer seems very passionate about the project which makes me a bit more confident in its feature than Reeder.

I really like the part that Black Pixel played here, handing over the name and app and letting him work on it.


I'm happy about this, and hope NNW becomes as good as it once was.

I've been pretty frustrated with Black Pixel, especially their lack of communication about roadmaps. When a year had passed with no news on the supposedly upcoming iOS app (2013 timeframe, when they moved to a new code base and broke sync), I gave up on them as vaporware and moved to Reeder with Inoreader as a syncing back end.

I'd love to have a reason to go back.
