Where Feedbin still shines. Feedbin is beautifully polished, mature, and a pleasure to use, with great newsletter and page-saving support. SlashFeed's edge is a free tier, bring-your-own-AI, Tor routing, and reading stats.

Switch from Feedbin in five minutes.

Your feeds and folders come across intact, over the open OPML standard. No re-typing, no lock-in — and you can export the same way any time.

1

Export from Feedbin

In Feedbin, open your account settings and export your subscriptions as an OPML file — a small, standard file listing every feed you follow.

2

Create your free account

Sign up in seconds — no credit card. The free plan holds up to 500 feeds, so most Feedbin libraries move over without paying a cent.

3

Import the OPML file

Open Import and drop in the file you exported. SlashFeed recreates your feeds and folders — it handles Feedbin exports, odd encodings, and BOM markers.

4

Check your categories

Your folders become colour-coded categories. Reorder them by drag-and-drop and tweak anything you like — your organisation carries over intact.

5

Start reading

That's it. New entries collect in one clean, chronological reader — and you can export via OPML any time, so there's no lock-in.

Switching from Feedbin

Can I import my Feedbin feeds into SlashFeed?

Yes. Export an OPML file from Feedbin, then import it into SlashFeed in one step. Your feeds and folders come across intact — the whole move takes about five minutes.

Is SlashFeed cheaper than Feedbin?

SlashFeed's free plan covers up to 500 feeds, and Pro is a flat $5/month with no higher-priced AI tier — the AI features work by connecting your own model via MCP.

Will I lose my data if I switch from Feedbin?

No. OPML import brings your subscriptions and folder structure over, and SlashFeed lets you export your feeds via OPML at any time, so you're never locked in.

What does SlashFeed do that Feedbin doesn't?

SlashFeed is private by design — no ad profiling — chronological rather than algorithmic, lets you bring your own AI via a personal MCP endpoint, speaks open standards (RSS, Atom, JSON Feed, Fever, Miniflux, OPML), and is planned to be open source.

Make the switch.

Import your Feedbin feeds free, in about five minutes.
