VERDICT

Should I use RSS.app?

RSS feed generator and app. Generate custom feeds from any website or social media, with widgets and auto-posting to Discord, Slack & Telegram. - rss.app

Depends. Buy if you need feeds from sites without RSS or want news auto-posted to Discord, Slack, or Telegram. Skip if you just want to read feeds — Feedly or Inoreader do that job cheaper.

Reddit reliability threads suggest occasional issues; test critical feeds before relying on them
