Yeah I think it must have to do with the number of people you follow. Hiding has worked fine for me. Though I only follow about 150 people. Surprisingly not that many people I know use Buzz, even though most use GMail.
Anyways, if you're looking for alternatives, I used Bloglines before I was a GReader fan. Might want to try that out again, or a desktop app might be up your alley too.
