        Hi there ...

        I might be the the last one using RSS feeds but I really need my dose of news updates every few hours 😉

        As the only scope I ever used except of the app drawer, the real great rss reader scope, doesn’t work on 16.04 as all other scopes I’m desperately in need of an alternative ...

        Shorter hat been compiled for 16.04 but unfortunately it doesn’t pull the feeds ... it updates ones the one feed already added by default and then it refuses to connect even to the default feed ...

        I tried Feedly in the new morph browser but unfortunately the login doesn’t work - you can login and it states you’re logged in now but it doesn’t forward to the site after that and if you go back to the main site manually it doesn’t recognise the login any more ...

        My favourite would be having the rss scope back but I know scopes are history so if anyone can suggest an alternative ...

        Many thanks

          @elastic Same here, missing RSS scope, no alternative available I'm afraid. Maybe someone can build an app, that would be awesom(I can't code)

            @bhdouglass has suggested in the OpenStore group that Inoreader (https://open-store.io/app/inoreader.cibersheep) worth a try, although is a webapp 🙂

              @advocatux thanks for that, it works ... just external links are not opening - same with most Webapps I tried since I migrated to 16.04 - the always are showing a blank page with a - X - an a - ^ - on the top who both bring you back to the webapp ...

                @elastic you're welcome. Which xenial channel are you using? Did you removed Browser Next already?

                    @elastic perfect then. I have one device running rc, and the other one running devel and I'm seeing a lot of Morph improvements daily, so maybe that external link issue will get fixed in the next rc update 🙂

                      @elastic , if you use TinyTiny RSS, then I can recommend using: g2ttrss It isn't as good as the TinyTiny RSS apps for Android, but it is good enough.

                        So for me shorter is working quite well... I have to push the sync button, but then it syncs the feeds as expected.

                              jup, shorter has issues. no https. no atom. @hummlbach if your feed needs are covered with http and rss, youre probably part of a lucky minority 😞

                                @doniks ah okay thanks for clarifying... not using it that much nowadays, but it fully fulfilled my wishes some time ago 🙂 Do we have an issue tracker for shorter? 😉 With the removal of the beloved rss/news whatever scope we imho should have at least one good working native rss reader app... not that anyone would have time for it, but nonetheless lets open an issue tracker?

                                        @elastic another option is to use an RSS bot in Telegram or Matrix 🙂

                                          Hi,
                                          For scope app, is there anything more than build again the app with updated SDK ? (if not will try to do this weekend as well as upload code on github)

                                          Also if you have any feature request for the rss scope, feel free i will try to do my best.

                                            @elastic said in RSS Reader:

                                            [...] just external links are not opening - same with most Webapps I tried since I migrated to 16.04 [...]
                                            That's been solved in dev channel, soon in rc channel 🙂

                                            Another planet, another time, another universe!

                                              After some delays, finally updated : https://open-store.io/app/rssreaderscope.kazord
                                              In order to apologize for the waiting, i added an import feeds feature (from an OPML online file)
