HappySuadela's Experience
Very bad. they dont have an option to remove duplicates in free version. So basically if I have 5 feeds and almost if everyone is talking about the same, then I am reading the same again and again.

Price change / Feature capping instituted
In February 2019 Inoreader announced that the "Professional" plan will be capped (big change from unlimited filters to just 30!): Based on our observations, the new premium feature limits on the “Pro” plan are as follows: 10 Rules - *** Increased to 30 Rules after Inoreader evaluated feedback from their users. 30 Active Searches 100 Boosted Feeds 30 Social media feeds per service (Facebook, Twitter, VKontakte). These limitations will be applied to your account at the start of your next subscription period. All features that you use above the new limits will be deactivated, and only those that were created earliest chronologically will remain (For e.g. your earliest 10 Rules created).

Clean, easy to overview UI
Feedly has an easy to overview interface. While this interface is clean and simple, it is still full of bright colors. A great feature that adds to the clean feel is "eliminate clutter", which keeps only the text of the desired topic.
