      Hi.
      I love the idea of this app.
      I've tried to add http://irishpost.co.uk/feed and irishpost.co.uk/feed (and a few others). Nothing seems to work. ❓

      headline

        I've also tried these links (they and the link from post #1) all work in QuiteRSS but not in the headline app.

        • http://feeds.breakingnews.ie/bntopstories
        • https://www.stallman.org/rss/rss.xml

          headline is now on v. 1.0.4 -- I still can't load the 3 feeds. 😕

            I think the best place to comment on this is in the application git, by opening an issue. 😉

            P.S. It may already be open, check beforehand.

              @bolly Hi. I see the headline app has had multiple version updates very recently. I'll try to add the feeds again. I don't really want to have to create a GitHub account.

                The application is very new, give it time.

                  @bolly Fair enough. 🙂

                    At v 1.1.1, it still won't load my feeds. 😞

                      Not a single heart rating on https://open-store.io/app/headline.collaproductions -- seems to be issues for everyone.
