   * The [[https://blog.thunderbird.net/2022/05/thunderbird-rss-feeds-guide-favorite-content-to-the-inbox/|Thunderbird]] E-Mail Client and the [[https://vivaldi.com/|Vivaldi]] Web Browser also have built in feed readers, so you may already have one!
-These feed readers will collect and store your feeds locally on your computer; however if you want to sync your feeds between multiple devices you'll need what's called an "RSS Aggregator"; this is an online service that will collect and sync your feeds for you; however most of them cost money. To get started I suggest you don't worry about this, but [[https://www.newsblur.com/|NewsBlur]] is one option and has a free plan; you can also self host with [[https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS|FreshRSS]]. All feed readers let you import/export the feeds you follow, so its easy to change in the future!

 Once you have an RSS reader, you're ready to start collecting feeds! Adding a feed to your RSS reader is called "Subscribing"; this is purely one sided, no one can see if you subscribe to their feed. To subscribe to a feed, simply click a feed link (if your browser supports it), if that does not work, just copy the feed url and add it to your feed reader manually.
