Ratings and reviews

As far as local RSS apps go (cloud-based ones have their own set of pros and cons), this has everything I could ask for. OPML import/export, notifications for new articles, setting individual feeds to automatically fetch full articles or open in the browser, multiple views for article lists (my choice is Super Compact to reduce distractions), and auto-detection of feeds when I add a URL. The app is fast and so far feels solid and reliable. Good reading experience despite little customizability.

Only thing I don't like about it is that when you read something, it marks it read instantly & removes it from your feed altogether instead of just leaving it there read like I'd prefer. But you can save favorite posts before you close/back out of them for reference, you just have to remember to do it. Other than that, Feeder is a GREAT app with an excellent simple, intuitive UI.

Incredible, minimalist app. I love that the UI is so simple and unobtrusive. I wanted something that was almost all text-only, and this is that. I love the amount of customization. A few suggestions that would make it even more perfect: I would love the option to always hide images (or tap to expand). How about if I could copy the article text to save in an app like Obsidian? A companion web/windows/iOS app would be stunning. Seriously awesome work y'all, thanks so much!
