I use emacs elfeed for my feeds, however I found it frustrating that my different feed categories - news, views, tech, podcasts, etc - all get jumbled up out of the box into one massive rss firehose.

Eventually I realised I could simply use bookmark.el to quickly create filtered search versions of my feeds based on their respective tags, and now I'm much happier. After setting it up, a `C-x r l` (bookmark-menu-list) later and I get a list that looks like this

  RSS: Daily News        @24-hours-ago +unread +news
  RSS: News              @1-weeks-ago +unread +news
  RSS: Not news          @2-weeks-ago +unread -news -hn
  RSS: tech              @2-weeks-ago +unread +tech
Bookmark.el was written in 1993 by a Karl Fogel in 1993, and it still interoperates nicely with a random newer package like elfeed.
