If I want to quickly pitch "you should follow X, Y, and Z using RSS because [problems with social media]" to people who have never heard of RSS, what readers should I recommend?

I want at least web (not self-hosted), Android, and iOS options. Native apps for Mac and Windows would be nice as well. Linux users probably already know what RSS is.

There absolutely must be a free option good for at least 25 feeds because unfamiliar tech is a hard enough sell without having to pay. I'll grudgingly accept ads if that's the tradeoff for something beginner-friendly.

Unfortunately, Flym seems to be discontinued (according to its F-Droid entry). Google Play won't install it on newer versions of Android because it's built for older versions. I can't use it for this use case for that reason.

That's too bad. And that will be a challenge for me, when I upgrade my current phone.

It still installs and runs on Android 13, but Google Play won't give it to you. I'm going to assume from the username you don't need instructions.
