I hear you. For what it's worth, if you're ok with a self-hosted alternative, tt-rss is alright (takes some fiddling to set up but it isn't awful, and pretty much just works after that). The web UI is very reminiscent of greader, but these days I mostly use one of the android clients people have used to talk to it.
