RSS Reader

@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.

@hummlbach mmh, not for me - always error messages... Same for added feeds and the default one...

Stefano · 29 Oct 2018, 12:47

@elastic Same for me. It just won't work.

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

hummlbach · 29 Oct 2018, 20:49

@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?

wow nice, it seems I'm two steps behind...

@mardy has published https://open-store.io/app/it.mardy.ttrss right now

@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

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)

I have installed your RSS Reader Scope and I really love that function and it is one of the most used on my phone.

I was wondering why scopes are still useable in 16.04. Now I read here that rest-scope-functionalities will be deleted with coming OTA 8: (see chapter What's Next?) https://ubports.com/pt_PT/blog/ubports-blog-1/post/ubuntu-touch-ota-7-release-192

Probably your RSS Reader Scope will than not be useable anymore?! If so - could you develop an app out of it?

kazord · 8 Jul 2019, 21:53

Standalone app is here : https://open-store.io/manage/simplestrss.kazord

@kazord rather https://open-store.io/app/simplestrss.kazord

Awesome! RSS Reader is one of the things I really used in scopes and now that it'll be removed soon, I was looking for an RSS reader. Sadly most I tried are not working so I'm happy I found something working. Good job! Keep it up!

@kazord

I'm aware this is an old thread, it could be my search capabilities but I could not find a dedicated SimplestRSS thread.

Would it be possible to include a REFRESH feature in the All Feeds? Thinking of a pull down to refresh option. In portrait would it be possible to have the items be stacked rather than displayed in pairs?

Thanks!

3T_Ed · 6 Mar 2021, 12:53

In addition to my previous comment, would it be possible to change the item layout in order to get it more easy to read? The RSS Reader app for instance is using a much better font/size/spacing.
