    RSSOwl was a desktop program, Inoreader appears to be web based, and not downloadable. Mobile-centric.

    Like RSSOwl, QuiteRSS has options to load the full webpage for each feed item, not just the summary, making it easy to read through a blog, a webcomic, or whatever else. It also has labeling and various other useful features.
