Recensione di untrained
I had high hopes for this extension but the interface feels really clunky and unintuitive. I'm providing this feedback hoping that at least some of these points can be improved in future updates.
- I keep expecting to be able to right click an entry in the article list to display a context menu to mark it as unread/read, mark this and all previous articles as read/unread, star, etc., but this opens it in a new tab instead and I see no way to change that functionality.
- For some reason sometimes when trying to switch between feeds by clicking on one the first click only highlights the feed and a second click is necessary to actually switch to it, this is intermittent though. (This may have something to do with having two Feedbro tabs open and adding a new feed on one of them)
- Selecting "Show only unread articles" doesn't refresh the list so it initially seems like it's not doing anything.
- When changing the "Feed entry content" it's not obvious that only new articles will be effected so again, this initially appears to do nothing.
- When using the Dark theme, if using the full article view and the page includes hard-coded dark fonts the text is almost invisible.
- The Feedback link for the Firefox extension for some reason brings me to the Chrome Web Store instead of the Firefox Add-ons page.
- The tooltip for marking an article as read reads "Mark this entry read/unread - Shortcut: m" but this seems to only work intermittently, if it stops working refreshing the page allows it to work again.
- It's great that this supports keyboard shortcuts, but for some reason arrow keys aren't used. I would expect to be able to move through the list of articles with arrow keys.
It's obviously not all negative though, I was surprised that this RSS reader supports custom rules and I love how much control this gives me to change what is displayed. The functionality to search for RSS feeds in the current page is simple but also very useful.

- Valutata 3 su 5di t'svai, 3 giorni fahave used this for years to follow a variety of types of feeds, and it's worked great. i especially like that i can manually sort my folders and feeds, (which most other readers i've tried don't allow).
however, within the last week or so, embeds in youtube feeds have stopped functioning and all return error 153. - Valutata 4 su 5di Utente Firefox 19532291, 16 giorni faWould STRONGLY benefit from automatic/scheduled/triggered exports of backups (OPML etc.) to user designated location(s).
It could then be set up to sync across devices and their various apps, guard against data loss, convenience.
It's baffling that this has not been implemented. - Valutata 4 su 5di Jonathan B. Horen, un mese fa

- Valutata 3 su 5di Joey Wheel, 2 mesi faFeedbro is compromised. It is communicating with a malicious IP: 50.87.175.165 According to AbuseIPDB this is for a word press brute force attack. It will slow up your internet browsing and it was making Google give me the "Are you a human" pop up when they get suspicious usage from a single device. I turned it off and the popups stopped. The only feeds I was tracking were a few people's tumblr pages. I had to ask around on forums at first because I legit thought I had a virus until I disabled the extension and no regular virus scanner was picking this up (by nature of how extensions work.)
Edit: I had ONE RSS feed I forgot about that wasn't a tumblr and must have been powered by wordpress (the feed author had a WP site.) Feedbro doesn't have anything in place to deal with broken feed requests. I had no way of knowing. - Valutata 5 su 5di Utente Firefox 19166050, 3 mesi fa
- Valutata 5 su 5di Narendran Gopalakrishnan, 4 mesi faThe best among those I have tried. Recently chrome blocked it due to MV3, and I switched to Feedbro on Firefox, but find that Alt+{1,2,3,4,5} of firefox are overridden when on the Feedbro page. A minor hitch.
