In response to a recent post:

I find NNW useful even though I'm not syncing between multiple devices for the simple reason that it lays out the different feeds and headlines in a manner that is far better and more customizable than typical web browser RSS readers, especially for handling a large number of feeds. It's far easier to browse headlines and summaries and see the number of updates associated with all your feeds in NNW than in Safari, for example. For RSS feeds that provide the whole article in the feed, you can browse the headlines and get the article on the bottom half of the screen rather than just having a huge page in your browser with all the articles. I don't use NNW's built-in browser when I need to open a web page because I hate having to view web pages without ad blocking. It would be nice to have this included, but otherwise I find NNW an excellent application.

A reason for NNW - Der Scherar

Why don't use Apples Mail for reading RSS Feeds?

I have thousands of headlines in my Mail. Searchable by Spotlight and easy to handle...

Why don't use Software you already have...?
