wót dyeray, 8 jierren lynI think it is actually pretty good for being a new reader and being built on the toy APIs of chrome/nufirefox. It is probably the only feed reader compatible with FF57+, and has some smart ideas, like the rule system.
My 2 cents on what to improve next:
* Improve feed compatibility (4 of my feeds that work on newsfox give an error on this one).
* Make pane resize area bigger than 1px, since right now is a PITA to resize any of the areas.
* Feed refresh cannot be disabled and be set to manual. Some users only need to refresh when they are going to read the news, and don't appreciate having stuff running on the background all the time.
* It would be nice to have a traditional 3-pane mode like the one on rssowl or newsfox, specially with the function to autoscroll every time the last item is selected, so the user does not need to move the mouse all the time to select the next item.
* Allow to rebind the hotkeys, or at least allowing to use the keyboard cursors to select the next article.
Hope you find these suggestions useful.

1. Can you please post the feed URLs that don't work? (or send them to feedbro.reader@gmail.com please). In 99,99% of the cases the reason is that the feed is not valid XML or not valid RSS/Atom/RDF or has timezone set so that feed items are in the future.
2. Resizing should be a rare need but we'll see if a wider border looks ok.
3. In Options you can increase the feed scan interval to 1440 minutes (once every 24h). In the next version there's even longer period and option to disable it. Note however, that many feeds hold only the last 10-20 items. So if feeds aren't scanned in the background, you will lose many items completely.
3. "Autoscroll every time the last item is selected"? Can you elaborate? In the feed panel when you press next (either button or keyboard) the view scrolls automatically if next item is not on the screen.
4. You can use keyboard arrow keys to move to the next article if you hold Shift while doing it (Shift + right arrow = next, Shift + left arrow = previous, Shift + down arrow = next feed, Shift + up arrow = previous feed). The reason you cannot do it without Shift is that then you could not scroll the article with arrow keys which is an important feature when reading articles.
Note that you can also use 'p' (previous) and 'n' (next) shortcuts to move between articles. See the Help for all shortcuts available.

- Z 4 z 5 pógódnośonywót andrenix, 19 oeren lynIt is very good, almost perfect. The rules feature is very complete.
Unfortunately it lacks a "search" feature (or I couldn't find it), which would be very useful. - Z 5 z 5 pógódnośonywót Dra Vu, 2 dagen lyn
- Z 5 z 5 pógódnośonywót jay, 6 dagen lynlove it! but can we get an option to prevent the theme from changing the colors of the html article content? a lot of my articles look all weird because the theme is changing the background color

- Z 1 z 5 pógódnośonywót emaloney, ien moanne lynStopped working with eBay a few days ago. No response from Nodetics. Looks like it's dead in the water.
- Z 4 z 5 pógódnośonywót BethNicole, 2 moannen lynFirst Impressions are that it's exactly what I was looking for. I haven't found an empty feed option but I can live without thay.
- Z 3 z 5 pógódnośonywót McNamara, 2 moannen lynI wanted to get the feed article in full through your help file so that I could read the articles offline.
When only online, it just shows the web page.
After going offline, it searches the content by trying to connect again
Please let me know if you could improve it further. And provides the content offline
Then I don't have to search one which provides such feature
All the best - Z 5 z 5 pógódnośonywót Bojan Kolarević, 2 moannen lyn

- Z 5 z 5 pógódnośonywót Wužywaŕ Firefox 14020785, 2 moannen lynThis has been the perfect feed reader for my needs, lots of functionality, except: I miss a way to move my starred articles over to a new browser installation. Is there a way to do this? Some of these articles are a couple of years old.

- Z 5 z 5 pógódnośonywót Grassini, 3 moannen lynA very useful addition!
It would be sensational if the template changed automatically at sunset from light to dark. - Z 5 z 5 pógódnośonywót Wužywaŕ Firefox 13529995, 3 moannen lyn
- Z 4 z 5 pógódnośonywót Wužywaŕ Firefox 16181250, 3 moannen lynOne of the more advanced feed readers out there.
Can't make it work in private windows in spite of setting it to do so.
Couldn't find a way to give feedback to Nodetics - Z 3 z 5 pógódnośonywót Wužywaŕ Firefox 13272506, 3 moannen lynSo far the best RSS add-on, but it definitely needs an undelete / recycle-bin option!
Edit 2025.03.16: Lately it keeps losing all messages (read/unread) messages after browser restart. Peeping for alternatives... - Z 5 z 5 pógódnośonywót corujo, 3 moannen lynDoes everything it says on the tin, it's simple and lightweight.
just needs an option to limit/block notifications on startup
