What happens to Reddit sources in Feedly
When you follow a subreddit in Feedly, Feedly is reading reddit.com/r/{sub}/.rss or a close variant on your behalf. Reddit retires every RSS and Atom feed on 13 Nov 2026 and has said there will be no replacement. From that date Feedly gets an error where the feed used to be, the source stops collecting new articles, and the folder it sits in goes quiet for that community.
The articles Feedly already collected stay in your boards and your read later list. What stops is new posts arriving, and Feedly does not always say why, so a quiet Reddit folder is easy to miss for days.
The switch, step by step
Redlisten serves the same feed paths at api.redlisten.com, with your key in the address because Feedly cannot send a header. Feedly follows a source by its URL, so the switch is following the new URL and unfollowing the old one.
- Create a free account and copy your key from the dashboard.
- Build the new address: take the Reddit feed URL, change
www.reddit.comtoapi.redlisten.com, make sure the path ends in.rss, and append?key=with your key. - In Feedly, use the follow box to add a source, paste the new address and pick the same folder the old source lived in.
- Once new entries show up, unfollow the old Reddit source so the folder does not carry a dead feed.
# The source you follow today
https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/new.rss
# The source to follow instead
https://api.redlisten.com/r/selfhosted/new.rss?key=rl_live_YOUR_KEYDo it before 13 Nov 2026 if you can. A source that answers with errors for a while may be marked as broken, and a source with no history behind it is easier to replace while the old one still works alongside it.
Which Reddit feeds you can follow
/r/{sub}/new.rssfor new posts in a community./r/{sub}/comments.rssfor every new comment in a community, which is the feed to use for a heated thread or a support community./r/{a}+{b}/new.rssfor several communities in one source, which keeps a Feedly folder tidy./user/{name}.rssfor one author's posts./search.rss?q=for a saved search across Reddit, withsubreddit:in the query to narrow it.
Entries carry the title, author, link, time and the post text, so Feedly's article view, its filters and any AI summaries on your plan work on them the way they did before.
Keep the key private
The key is part of the address, so treat the address as a secret. Do not share a board or a public collection that exposes the source URL. Your account can hold two keys, so the tidy setup is a separate key for Feedly. If it ever leaks, revoke that one key in the dashboard and follow the sources again with a new one, and nothing else you run is touched.
How often Feedly checks
Feedly decides when to check a source, and you do not set an interval. Every check is one request on your key. For one or two communities a free key is a fair test. For a folder of Reddit sources, a Pro key gives headroom so a busy week does not run the month out.
What it costs
Every time Feedly checks a feed it makes one request, and each entry in the feed counts as one result. A free key has 250 requests a month, which fits one feed checked every three hours, enough to test the switch. A Pro key at $29 a month has 50,000 requests and covers about fifty feeds checked hourly. Plans are listed on the pricing page, dated 6 Nov 2026, and there are no daily caps.
The RSS switch page lists every feed path, and the docs describe the entry fields.
