Ratings and reviews

This app is really good! I love the Discord-style drawer holding the list of feeds, the gestures for swiping to mark as read/unread, and the system theming integration. My one nitpick is the app occasionally thinks my attempted vertical scroll is a horizonal swipe. I do also wish there was a way to add custom icons for feeds that don't come with one. And I would find it useful to be able to filter out feed items with specific keywords (author = WIRED), though that's probably a niche request.

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.

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!
