The verdict

There are no unread counts in Reeder; it remembers your spot in one timeline of RSS feeds, YouTube channels, podcasts and Mastodon and Bluesky posts, and syncs that spot through iCloud. You can also build filtered timelines by keyword or media type. If you like working through folders until the badge hits zero, the free NetNewsWire is the better fit, and Reeder's subscription is $14.99 a year.
