I have used NetNewsWire on both Mac and iPhone for years, and have been reasonably happy. Unfortunately the latest version of NNW for Mac, which I just upgraded to, now matches Google Reader's policy of marking items read after 30 days. The older version I had been using did not do this. I regularly keep unread items for way longer than 30 days, and do eventually read them, so this is a major bummer for me. The iPhone version has behaved this way forever, but I was ok with that as long as I had the full list on my desktop.
Keeping in sync between the iPhone and Mac is very important, so I need to find another online solution with clients available on both sides.
I've done a little digging but haven't found much; it seems like Google has pretty much taken over this space.
Any suggestions?
