BazQux Reader
What it is
BazQux Reader brings website feeds and social pages into one place for reading without ads and tracking. Users can follow Facebook, Telegram, and VK pages alongside websites, and the reader can show full text for truncated articles and social-media links. Search covers feeds and tagged articles; filters and smart streams help organize them, with list, mosaic, magazine, expanded, and mixed views. Articles can be starred or tagged, shared by email, Twitter, or Facebook, and saved to Pocket, Instapaper, or Pinboard. Offline reading is supported, as are Google Reader and Fever APIs and third-party clients across listed mobile and desktop platforms. Accounts can subscribe to or import up to 3,000 feeds and create up to 500 filters or smart streams combined. Unread articles are kept indefinitely, subject to a 500-article total per feed. Refresh timing varies from 15–45 minutes to more than three hours depending on the latest article; WebSub feeds update in real time. Pricing starts at $30/yr with a 30-day trial; listed plans are $50 a year and $249, paid once.
