MunchFeed is an RSS reader for people who want to keep up without turning reading into a backlog. Follow the feeds you care about, move quickly between unread, saved, all, and discarded articles, and search across your library when you need something specific. When a feed only includes a short excerpt, you can open the full article. If you just want the main points, you can switch between the full article, a 50% summary, or a 25% summary. Each feed can have its own reading defaults and filters. You can use keyword filters and AI filters to remove topics you do not want to see, and you can reduce noise by discarding promotional and duplicate articles. MunchFeed also includes themes, font controls, line-height controls, link-opening preferences, read-item retention, and OPML import and export. MunchFeed+ removes the usage limits for AI summaries and full-text article opening. The free tier includes up to 20 AI summaries and 80 full-text article openings.
