They serve different purposes. The viewer in the browser is only to preview what you're going to get if you subscribe without switching context to another application (most feeds I view I don't end up subscribing to). A feed reader is for subscribing and reading regularly.

A shout-out to NetNewsWire from me. It's perfect.

It would be a lot more perfect if you could force it to push local state to the cloud when it syncs (or vice versa). Automagically applying heuristics doesn't always work so well.

I really need to sit down one weekend and figure out how to make this work (by iterating through DB.sqlite3 and pushing the appropriate entries to Sync.sqlite3... I think...).
