The Feedly alternative that puts you back in charge.
Feedly is a polished reader that increasingly pushes its own AI and enterprise features. SlashFeed keeps things private and chronological: 500 feeds free, a flat $5 Pro, and your own AI via MCP. Bring your feeds across in about five minutes.
Why people switch
What you gain by leaving Feedly.
No algorithm deciding for you
Everything your sources publish, newest first. No AI feed re-ranking what you "should" read — you chose the sources, you see all of it.
One flat price
500 feeds free, Pro at $5/month. There's no pricier tier gating the AI features — you connect your own model via MCP instead.
Private by design
No ad profile is built from your reading. You pay for a reader, not with your attention — with passkeys, 2FA, and optional Tor routing.
Bring your own AI
A personal MCP endpoint lets your own LLM read, search, and summarise your feeds — instead of paying for a proprietary assistant.

Migration
Switch from Feedly 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.
Export from Feedly
In Feedly, open your account settings and export your subscriptions as an OPML file — a small, standard file listing every feed you follow.
Create your free account
Sign up in seconds — no credit card. The free plan holds up to 500 feeds, so most Feedly libraries move over without paying a cent.
Import the OPML file
Open Import and drop in the file you exported. SlashFeed recreates your feeds and folders — it handles Feedly exports, odd encodings, and BOM markers.
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.
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.
FAQ
Switching from Feedly
Can I import my Feedly feeds into SlashFeed?
Yes. Export an OPML file from Feedly, 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 Feedly?
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 Feedly?
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 Feedly 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.
