Yes. I'm subscribed to 170 feeds using the Newsblur app. I started using feeds with Google Reader. When it was shutdown, I self-hosted Tiny Tiny RSS for a while, hosted using a cloud provider's free plan. After some time and a server out of disk space disaster, I didn't want to bother with hosting it myself anymore. So I tried other services like Digg Reader, The Old Reader and Feedly. I finally settled on using Newsblur and I have been a subscriber for many years now.
The primary reason for selecting Newsblur is the excellent offline support in the Android app. When commuting to work with metro, cellular reception is spotty. So before I go in the train, I refresh my feeds in the app, then I turn off the WIFI and read the content offline. When I get off the metro, I re-enable the WiFi for the read status to sync up.

I wish web browsers had better support for feeds to make them more convenient for everyone to use. Instead they seem to have given up on RSS and removed any support or made it optional through difficult to find and setup add-ons :(
I wonder how a Spring WebFlux [1] variant of the spring benchmark would perform in comparison. Also the spring benchmark has been updated to use a recent spring boot release about a month ago [2]. Before that it was using spring boot 1.3.5.
Regarding Firebase, they said that they "added support for Persona as one of the authentication mechanisms for their Simple Login service". Their main website must not be using this service or not enabled the particular authentication component?
Why they had to do that? They must had deleted it recently (last cached by google search at 9 Mar 2013). Closing down a service is one thing, not making it easy for people to use feeds in their browser is another. And it was just an extension, not even part of the browser. And when you see the feature creep in Chrome lately, it makes you wonder what their priorities really are..
Firefox hasn't removed the feed button. But it is not on the toolbar by default, like it used to be. You have to customize the toolbar and add it. Chrome I think never had a feed button by default. But there are a number of feed extensions for chrome that you can get (there was one made by Google also).
