This may be because most feed readers don't have a proper way to triage items. Adding a feed doesn't mean you want to read everything from said feed. Usually only a subset of articles are interesting.

I built a feed reader with that concept in mind, having a separate triage stage where you only decide if it's worth reading or not. This will make it easier to handle large feed lists and find the best articles from them.

I just build feed hydrators that get the feeds, filter them and generate a new feed for FreshRSS to consume.

For example my HN feed only surfaces articles with enough votes + comments and a few other variables.

All high-content feeds also have a maximum number of items, if it goes over they're marked as read.
