Good luck with other ventures! I guess I'll have to use Google reader now, but I'm not looking forward to it. I had great use for Newshutch while it lasted, so let me give you a big pat on the back!

I'll miss Newshutch, it was easily the best RSS-reader that I have used so far. I'll hope that you will consider releasing the source under an open source license so others can continue working on it. Thanks for the great work!

Newshutch is definitely one of the best readers out there. Why don't open source the code? So everyone can improve it and run their own readers, something along the wordpress.com model?

I fully dug Google Reader when I first found it, but Newshutch was love. Thanks for the outstanding work; sorry it didn't work out for you. I understand, however, that your product can't own you and sometimes you just have to move on. Let me join the chorus of the disappointed and forlorn.

Then I saw the message telling that the service will be shutdown. I'm not probably willing to buy it, as someone suggested above, but I would certainly pay a fee to keep using it.

I can't go back to Google Reader or Netvibes ever, the bells and whistles are simple overwhelming and I suspect they can only be streamlined so much. Trawlr failed to get feeds from the first site I tried, and was struck by catatonia while trying to upload my opml file. Then besides being ugly, the guys also failed to check out what the layout looks like in Opera and fix the design glitches. My back-up plan was to use the feed aggregator that comes in my Opera browser, but now that I finally surmounted the idea of its bare homeliness to try and see if I could bear using that on a daily basis, I've realised it only loads teeny thumbnails of picture and excerpts of posts, while not sparing me large ad images. Brrr. Someone save Newshutch? I’m still not over it.

I have migrated my feed list to trawlr but still think Newshutch is the best feed reader out there. good luck on your future ventures. This is a real shame.

Even with the very clean theme that you recommended, google reader is half as usable and enjoyable as newshutch was, at best. I find that I'm already leaving feeds building for long stretches, whereas with Newshutch I would leap on every opportunity to see what was new. If anything or anyone finds a way to keep this running, please do so. Well, after a week of trying to use google reader, let me just re-iterate that Newshutch will be sorely missed.

Newshutch was easily the best newsreader available. Thanks a lot for what you've done, and good luck on your next projects. Sad news indeed. Newshutch was easily the best newsreader available.

It did just what I want, and no more. Best of all, it didn't hurt my eyes. I didn't want to use any other and was satisfied with it (after trying so many before finally settling with Newshutch). What am I gonna do! *grabs hair* Do pass it along, don't just shut it down, puh-leeeease ? That said, best of luck for the future. :) I loved the cleanness and simplicty of it.
