AkregatorĪfter finding a number of OPML files (rss backups) on github, I wanted to see what these feeds offered, but didnt want to clog up QuiteRSS or Liferea with other peoples feeds, so i used Akregator.Īkregator was quite minimal, but let me import 5 opml files with ease and read the feeds. The problem with Liferea is that any folder I make, doesn't actually appear. I also liked the way there was a make folder option, QuiteRSS doesnt offer folders for the feeds, so they are all in one long list. This is how i have gone through the feeds, but it is a little unnerving when they disappear after you click on the next one. I like the way you can read the unread feeds across all the feeds in the app. So i tried the following apps, but none quite did it for me! Liferea I use QuiteRSS as my main feed reader, but am open to new ways. I tend to go to the wireless hotspot, download all the feeds and go back to my desk to read them. This also tends to open a new browser window, but as i am offline, it just gives an error page.Īnother strange feature is that many articles are marked as read, even thou i havent had a chance to read the feeds. One really annoying feature is if you click on the line between the news items in a feed, it decides to open in a browser. There is an ability to search within one feed, but thats not how I need to search. Any ideas how to unset this?Īll round, i like QuiteRSS, it doesnt have a progress box to show downloads, something I would like to see as i often work with sporadic internet connections. Maybe this is a feature I discovered in another window manager, as i used LXDE earlier. I cannot find how this has been set in the settings/options panels. Everytime I open QuiteRSS, i have to untick the "ALWAYS ON TOP" setting in the right click. One small problem I have is that when i open it, it is always set to "ALWAYS ON TOP". My main RSS feed reader, i like it, but it is a little slow to open and close. I use a number of RSS feed readers on my Debian machine and wanted to highlight what I like about each one. I use them for News, website statuses and more. In case you don't know, RSS feeds (and ATOM feeds) are text files that provide the latest pages from a website. I have always been a fan of RSS feeds going back years.
