I'm a google reader orphan

I tried the Old Reader, but it had problems updating the feeds in a timely manner. At one point, BoingBoing had not updated for more than a day, but I could see that more than 50 things had been posted to the website. I have switched to Netvibes, but I still do not like it as much as I liked Google Reader. I have not tried Feedly or Digg Reader because I do not want to use my Google account as a log-in.
