Yes we have newsbeuter and canto/nrss, but if a CLI newsreader does not perfectly suit your needs, try a GTK2 one.
Warning: Do NOT install liferea from the repos! v1.10 depends on GTK3, amongst other crap like half-assed plugins. Compile v1.8.16 instead:

It's funny how we used to be able to do real stuff with rudimentary computers, but now we can't. -- ratcheer
Re: Liferea - GTK2+ rss reader
This is a good one. I was used to this before moving to newsbeuter.
Re: Liferea - GTK2+ rss reader
Liferea crashes for me when playing embedded videos, related to libcairo2 - apparently compositing may be the cause (compton, in my case).

Re: Liferea - GTK2+ rss reader
Silly question: what font do you use in gtk2? Do they work if you pick something like "Sans", too? Just asking because I got the same when using some non-standard fonts in gtk2 apps.
..gnutella..
Re: Liferea - GTK2+ rss reader
I use "Noto Sans", changed it to "Sans" and no font (no xsettingsd) but it crashes after a few seconds; interesting is how both GTK3 and GTK2 appear to suffer from the same bug, and that it (seems to) work with Flash (not HTML5) enabled.
