av Firefox-användare 12955352, för 8 år sedanWorks pretty good, but I'm still missing one big feature: no auto feed update option
Feeds are a great way to keep up to date about a diverse range of topics and the better the reader the more feeds you subscribe to.
Problem with having a feed reader in your web browser is that all of them will constantly broadcast the feeds you've subscribe to, anywhere you take your device to.
This is also true for feedbro, even with the autoscan interval set to the max (why is there no simple off option?).
Not only does it unnecessarily slow down the browser, it is also bad opsec.
Please add a truly and strictly "manual update" option.
Also, opening some menu or hovering a feed should preferably not lead to unnecessary dns requests (maybe when DoH finds widespread adoption this would be less of a concern). I think preventing this from within feedbro is not feasible or too much of a hassle. Disabling network.dns.disablePrefetch Firefox-wide it is then.

- Betygsatt 2 av 5av Firefox-användare 14082151, för 25 dagar sedanI've been using Feedbro for so many years I really can't remember when I started using it. The problem I've been having recently though is when I open my notifications, it simply shows nothing. I can't even click the individual selections to view what's new.

- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Gormadt, för 4 månader sedanIt would have remained a 5 for me but YouTube feeds now only give me the "Error 153" popup whenever I try to watch a video. This has persisted for MONTHS now and there hasn't been a fix yet.
I've also noticed that the add-on was last updated 3/24/2024 (over 2 years ago at time of review) so I'm presuming this add-on is now dead in the water, which is a shame. - Betygsatt 3 av 5av strok3, för 4 månader sedanLack of backup/sync option make migration to another profile/fresh install a total pita, besides loosing all your bookmarked articles. No sync with other services.

- Betygsatt 3 av 5av ella, för 6 månader sedanI LOVE this addon but it needs more themes for modern aesthetics. You get black, white, dark blue, or dark brown? I would love more variety. Grays, beige, or pastels (like a like blue or light green). Or color across the top + white on the bottom.

- Betygsatt 5 av 5av pnhan, för 7 månader sedanThere are few utilities as comprehensive as this one, supporting so many news feeds, so many viewing modes, but it's free!!
There have been some recent changes related to Youtube embedded links, and I wonder if it is possible to write plugins for this addon (if it supports API) to get better feeds from Facebook groups or personal pages (instead of "scraping" public data like currently, very limited in content and rate limited).
Looking forward to receiving updates and feedback from the developer soon!!
A great utility that I have already recommended to my friends! - Betygsatt 3 av 5av Celtice, för 7 månader sedanIt's a really great tool when set-up works out and the feeds continue to update. I've had problems though, like an error 398 with a couple feeds on the same website, and I can't figure out what it means---I have no clue if it's an issue with the website or the extension. Regardless, RSS feeds might be a "dying breed", but like the radio, it's an integral tool to preserve, and I enjoy being able to check the websites/blogs/social media pages that I care about, with fewer distractions and bouncing between sites.
- Betygsatt 1 av 5av fridakozari, för 7 månader sedanOn Firefox 146.0.1 for Ubuntu number of all and unread articles are not updated when new articles are fetched. It seems that data for earlier fetched articles is somehow overwritten, items are disappearing.
I've also tweaked the available settings - no help.
I'd join the earlier reviews that maintenance of this addon is lagging behind.
I like the idea to handle my RSS feeds in my web browser, I also like the looks and features of this addon, but now I am switching to another solution. - Betygsatt 5 av 5av BooBea, för 7 månader sedanit's peak, it works perfectly, absolutely faultless. 10/10
- Betygsatt 3 av 5av binomialtie7087, för 8 månader sedanGood simple rss/atom feed reader. it works as a browser extension so doesn't require logging in to some server hosted platform that trys to push you to pay for a better version of itself, whilst also not being a complex hard to understand self-hosted thingy. decent amount of customisability with 4 colour themes and several layouts. unfortunately it doesn't allow for subfolders, but ive managed around that. also recently embedded youtube videos no longer work which suucks, brings my review down from what probably wouldve been a four or five to three!
