- Vurdering: 3 av 5av dr_white, 7 år sidanEverything Mario77 says is 100% accurate. No idea why the developer would want to make RSS more complex than it needs to be.
- Vurdering: 3 av 5av Firefox user 11391270, 7 år sidanToo little configuration options for the popup.
I want to have the feeds grouped by source in the popup. In subfolders. And I want to display all feeds in the popup. Just like the regular live bookmarks by Mozilla.
Unfortunately, the author did not integrate such basic functionality. I'd really appreciate a more sophisticated and customizable popup. But as is, the original Firefox live bookmarks + LiveClick is still a hundred times more convenient than this addon.
Answer to author response: No, this can still be very good UI design. Have you tried out Firefox live bookmarks + LiveClick? You could click the bookmark popup and saw everything you needed in one single popup. You didn't have to open a new tab just for the feed overview. It was a dream. Unfortunately, Mozilla set everything on fire and LiveClick was one of the victims. Now we are looking for an alternative. But most other addons don't share the simplicity of LiveClick. They all have overloaded designs and you need to open a separate tab just to see an overview of live bookmarks. That's what I call a bad UI design.
Here is an image how you addon could be designed if you were interested in a very good UI: https://addons.cdn.mozilla.net/user-media/previews/full/54/54655.pngSvar frå utviklaren
posta 7 år sidanLiveClick type view is now also available when you click the Feedbro icon and then choose "Open Explorer". It's a very simple view compared to the actual "Open Feed Reader" view but can be useful for quick peeks. - Vurdering: 5 av 5av Iblis76, 7 år sidanExactly what I was searching for. Rational and with all the right options. Great job.
- Vurdering: 4 av 5av Plejaden, 7 år sidanI'm was looking for a replacment of Sage++ and found Feedbro to be the best alternative. A sidebar and a more lightweight looking design would be cool. My problem right know with Feedbro is that new articles are not listed (since update to FF 60.0b5 (64-Bit)!? I don't know). My news feed is zero and I'm sure that there are new articles. The manual refresh isn't working either. I got the pop-up that the scanning for new articles started scanning but nothing is found.

posta 7 år sidanSounds like your Firefox profile has been corrupted which breaks IndexedDB functionality (which then prevents Feedbro from saving articles). You can fix your profile by opening URL about:support and then press "Refresh Firefox". Warning! This will remove your extensions and their settings so backup them first if you need to. - Vurdering: 5 av 5av Firefox user 13875380, 7 år sidan

- Vurdering: 4 av 5av Firefox user 13312508, 7 år sidanQuite happy with Feedbro as replacement for Sage++, however I find it very scary to hear media playing when opening some rss feeds. Can this be blocked somehow or can you add an option to not download article bodies at all? I'm using mode 2 view only showing the headers and I don't read the articles in Feedbro as I open the links with Firefox in new tabs where I've blocked such things using uMatrix dynamic filtering.

posta 7 år sidanAny chance you could isolate which feed URL has those autoplaying videos/audio clips so we could take a look if it can be blocked somehow. Please send the URLs to feedbro.reader@gmail.com. Thanks! - Vurdering: 4 av 5av Mariusz, 7 år sidan

Sidebar support would get the fifth star from me as this is what I really need. Otherwise this is a very good feed reader.
- Vurdering: 4 av 5av Dino Conte, 7 år sidanFeedbro has become my perfect feed reader. Clear interface, no advertising. What more could you ask for?
What I miss:
->Synchronization with FirefoxSync, so that I have the same data at home and in the office.
->Which would also be nice: support for Android.
->ReadLater/Bookmarks
"You can "bookmark" articles by starring them."
Yes, I know that. But it would be nice to use Feedbro as Pocket or Instapaper alternative. So, save websites outside of Feedbro in Feedbro: -))Svar frå utviklaren
posta 7 år sidanYou can "bookmark" articles by starring them. Click the star icon on the title row or at the end of the article. Alternatively you can use Pocket (Send To-menu). - Vurdering: 5 av 5av Firefox user 13753803, 7 år sidanInstalled my feeds, looks good.
How do I know if a feed’s been updated?
I’ve set notifications & sounds, but if I miss those, how do I check? - Vurdering: 4 av 5av ff201307, 7 år sidannice alternativ for Bamboo!
can i automaticly hide a new feed if is marked as read (nice feature from Bamboo) ? - Vurdering: 5 av 5av Firefox user 13550846, 7 år sidan
- Vurdering: 5 av 5av Firefox user 13729572, 7 år sidanI like it. Former Bamboo user, this is a better solution.
***Bug Report! I am unable to Export my subscriptions. I could not find a place to file a bug report, so here it is.
"This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below."
I really want to use this on other systems. I don't want go to the effort of recreating all of my stuff over again.
thanks!
***Bug fixed, thanks!Svar frå utviklaren
posta 7 år sidanThank you for the review.
I suppose you are using Linux? Firefox on Linux has a bug that prevents "download a file" functionality from working. As a workaround, Feedbro just opens the feed subscriptions data in a separate tab. You need to right-click the area and select "Save As" to save your subscriptions to the disk.
PS. Our official support email is feedbro.reader@gmail.com - all issue reports and feature requests are welcome there. - Vurdering: 5 av 5av Siem, 7 år sidan
- Vurdering: 5 av 5av Ailothaen, 7 år sidanGreat extension we have there! That reader is very easy to use, but we have a huge customisation potential if we look into the settings. Especially with the Rules panel.
Just a suggestion : It would be nice if we had the ability to create our own themes (I mean, import and export our own CSS sheets).
Also, I think there should be an option to make the Feedbro icon "uncolorized". Most of the buttons in Firefox are in shades of grey by default, and the icon of the extension adds some visual "noise", making sometimes hard to see the number of updates with a fast glance :/ - Vurdering: 5 av 5av Tor K., 8 år sidanThis addon is awesome. Old Bamboo user, I really loved its Popup option, not the default "Tab" one which was the standard and only type for Feedbro. Nonetheless, I made do.
Thanks anyways, best feedreader for FF Quantum :) - Vurdering: 4 av 5av Firefox user 13707739, 8 år sidanPlease, 3 very simple requests:
- Make article titles (3-panel view titles list) to fit in just 1 line (including favicons option "on").
There is no need for 2 lines per title. If an individual user wants to see sources under article titles, then should be optional for him (but not forced for all users).
With the present 2 lines per title layout, it is very uncomfortable to use in small screens or mobiles (specially when we use lot of RSS). BTW, sources are described at the the first left-column, so it is redundant to put it again in title column.
- Make for the article titles, the same option articles have allowing customization of body font size and body line height.
- Make all columns 100% sizeable.
I use the "mode use 3". Columns have a small option to be resized. It will be nice to have 100% size control of the 3 columns.
I will give 5 stars if my 3 very simple requests are done.
Also, I will make a donation if it is done in the next days.
Thks - Vurdering: 3 av 5av Firefox user 11640498, 8 år sidanFEEDBRO is a hell of thousand tracking cookies invading privacy. Nowadays this is also a dangerous cybersecurity problem.
I tested FEEDBRO by blocking all cookies in FF. And all my feeds worked perfect at FEEDBRO. No cookies at all.
But the problem is that I need cookies enabled at FF.
So, if FEEDBRO works with cookies blocked, why FEEDBRO doesn't block cookies by it self?
In fact, in the option or settings page, FEEDBRO can block scripts, objects, applet, iframe, embed... but not cookies! Why is that?
FEEDBRO needs a simple option to load articles as text-only, or a simple option for blocking cookies. This will improve resources, and will solve privacy and security risks.
* Cookie add-ons are not working over cookies of other add-ons. Cookie AutoDelete doesn't work on FEEDBRO. I tested other different cookie addon-s and all of them don't recognize FEEDBRO as a "tab" or "window". The best scenario with these cookie add-ons is deleting cookies when FF closes, but dangerous FEEDBRO cookies might live hours and days. UMatrix is the only add-on deleting localstorage before FF closes, but is ridiculous to install 2MiB only because of FEEDBRO.
* I have more than 200 feeds, so is impossible to white-list cookies. Also, FF built-in cookies manager doesn't allow to import/export or synchronized blocked/unblocked cookies. No one is going to expend days doing this inefficient task.
** I am raising my stars qualification considering author' predisposition to: a) Solve problems b) Attend user requests c) Quick answers. Thank you.
** 2MiB is not a matter of size in the HD, but it is a huge matter of browser system resources. And in principle, isn't right to force the use of other add-ons in order to use FEEDBRO.
FEEDBRO perfectly can work without cookies. And not approved cookies are a big privacy and security issue. So, a simple option loading articles as text-only is the perfect solution. Thank you.Svar frå utviklaren
posta 8 år sidanWe created an improved Cookie Manager called Cookiebro which can automatically and periodically drop unwanted cookies (also cookies that originate from WebExtension HTTP(S) requests). https://cup.aihedy.com/en-GB/firefox/addon/cookiebro/
It is also possible to integrate cookie filtering to Feedbro but then it will be "all or nothing" without any whitelist/blacklist type functionality. We'll most likely add that possibility + image filtering option in the following releases.
