Easy RSS

Are you an avid consumer of internet media? Are you frustrated by the lack of a consistent way of getting notifications for the content that you love? If you answer yes to any of these questions, then RSS feeds are the solution for you!

There is one problem i didn't mention...

RSS feeds are an old technology straight from the 90s, and because of that most RSS readers and managers look like they are from the same era.

That's why i made Easy RSS! The RSS manager for the common internet denizen! This stylish and modern RSS manager takes all the simplicity of the RSS format, and incorporates it into a modern and stylish design to create an easy to use but still powerful piece of software.

Easy RSS includes features such as:

  • Synchronizing your YouTube subscriptions, so you no longer have to worry about a spooky algorithm controlling what you see.
  • Importing and exporting your feeds to and from other RSS readers, so you can easily adopt Easy RSS, or leave for another RSS reader if you feel like it (altough I shouldn't tell you that if I want a higher usercount).
  • A simple and easy to understand modern UI that makes sure you are never lost in settings pages and Windows XP-esque dialogs
