Why do you think it sucks?

I haven't looked at Straw in a LONG time, but back in the day its  
dependencies were outrageously complicated, so I bagged it.

The ONLY reason I started using NetNewsWire on my Mac - and the ONLY  
reason I'd use ANY desktop RSS reader - is integration/synchronization  
with Google Reader (or any other online feed reader). I want to be  
able to access my feeds from anywhere, from any browser - if  
everything is locked up on a desktop somewhere, that defeats my  
ability to do so.

Which is why I mentioned Gregarius & Fever, 2 web-based readers you  
host yourself, for those inclined to go that direction.
