← Customer Feedback for BazQux Reader

I suggest you ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. Way to get the previous read post

    When reading with "Show new" selected. Making a misstake can make it hard find the previous post.
    Example:
    * Reading a feed with "Show new" active.
    * About half of the alticles are read, the second half is unread.
    * The user makes a mistake (close the browser, clicks a bookmark).
    * The only way to get back to the article would be switching to "Show all" and scrolling past all the previusly read post to find the last read post.

  2. Undo "Mark all as read"

    Accidentally pressed button. If it would be possible to undo this operation even for a few seconds, I could be saved. Now I need to spend a few hours finding lost articles.

  3. Become a fully libre/free software (open source) project under AGPLv3

    Bazqux could benefit a lot from the FLOSS community, and it could also be a big benefit back. Currently, NewsBlur is the major web feed reader and has a similar business model so it is entirely sustainable.

  5. Mark a feed as "full text" display

    There are loads of RSS feeds where the content is a lame link to a full page. For these, I systematically type "g" to retrieve the full text page.
    Having a full text option configurable on each feed would make a perfect addition.

  6. Colourful tags

    It would be nice to define colours for tags (red, blue, green etc) and have the articles highlighted or at least the tags within them.

  9. Help users to find dead/abandoned feeds (feeds without news for a long time)

    Manually looking through all my feeds I found a lot that have not been posting news for months and could be considered dead/abandoned. It would be great if there was a way to find these feeds in Bazqux, for example by having a list of feeds without new posts for, say, 2 month.

  11. Refining jump to next feed

    The current implementation of jump to next feed is kind of a blunt tool. I suggest the following refinement. When at an beginning or end of a view. Using "j", "k", "L" or Spacebar to go past the border will:

    1. Cancel all current and queued keypresses.
    2. Show a small notice that the current action will advance feeds. I suggest a colored or gray bar above the first item or below the last item.
    3. Add a small delay, before accepting new keypresses.
    4. Continuing presses past the border will then advance feeds.

    This will prevent incorrect feed changes, an having to manually…

  12. Send content feed in email body

    When I share feeds over email in Google Reader, it include all body of the feed in message body. BazQux include only URL. Please include body of the message to email body :)
    Thank you!

  13. Keep items unread

    Add a lock control so that items can be kept unread even if browsed.
    The point is to browse over some items that are too long to read right now, but that I will want to read later.

  17. Three column display

    I like to read one message at a time, without seeing the next message under the current message. A clean display. In other words just like feedbin.me does: subscription list, message list, message display.

    Very simple feature that I miss in RSS readers for years. It seems to be implemented only in commafeed right now.

  19. Add "batch" edit (.. just like Google Reader had)

    Google Reader had under Settings a section to do changes to multiple feeds at the same time. For example, allowing to select multiple feeds at the same time and move them a different folder. That section in google reader also allowed to edit feed tittles to multiple feeds at the same time. Really missing that feature from google reader

  20. Move the "Share" link to the bottom of an article

    At present moment, the "share" link is placed on the right top corner. It is not useful, because if I decide to share an article with my friends, I have to scroll up to find this button and then scroll down back to a next article.
