RSS Reader ?

Re: RSS Reader
Having tried all the others out there, while start.me works great as an RSS Reader, I was wondering if there were any inroads in V to incorporate one (as a lightweight reader) ?
-
@rojaviv It's planned. There's no word on when, or whether it's even been worked on at all yet.

@rojaviv It is already in the list of Feature Requests: RSS and Atom Reader

@gwen-dragon Smart RSS isn't being updated anymore. The next problem with the extension is the fact it's on opera store and that you need to install 2 extensions.
The better version of Smart RSS is the RSS Aggregator, which is just an advanced version of Smart RSS. It's on Chrome web store and features the full functionality in just one extension. Moreover it fixed some nasty bugs which annoyed me to no end in Smart RSS.

Personally I think it's the best reader out there.
edit: the only downside of the rss aggregator is the ugly icon, which I exchanged for the one from smart rss and edited to use my theme colors on both the icon and the counter.

@gwen-dragon Would you care to elaborate?

@gwen-dragon Hmm, I don't see why this would matter, extension shortcuts still don't work on Vivaldi, and both extensions just feature one shortcut anyway.
Funny addition: Opera now has disabled the download option in its extension catalog -- it always tries to make you download Opera instead of the extension. You have to spoof the user agent to get to the extension download. Then an actual
.crx
file is being downloaded, which surprisingly doesn't install in Vivaldi. I had to download the extension from the github source and load it unpacked to make it work. – I guess the consequence is packing it yourself. -
@luetage said in RSS Reader ?:
RSS Aggregator
RSS Aggregator is nice and simple, too bad we cant add folders to segregate feeds.

I have found news(dot)google(dot)com is a solid news aggregator.
It can be personalized according to ones particular needs.
Google News is my homepage. All that said, I think it would be great if V did have a RSS Reader. -
feeder.co is not a bad option.
