Done.
By default only wall owner posts are shown. Use foreign_posts=1 option (e.g. subscribe to vk.com/my_group?foreign_posts=1 ) to get them.
Discontinued vkontakte-feed feeds are handled automatically and should work again.

Esc and r
When using list view, Esc key should close the current article, just like clicking on the title grey band.
And the r key should refresh.
These are two features of Feedly I miss in BQ. Otherwise, after extensive testing Feedbin, Digg, Feedly, AOL, and many others, BQ is the best in my opinion.
1 voteEscape works. ‘r’ will work when I add auto refresh (probably this week).

Slashdot posts have excess whitespace
Not sure if this is unique to Slashdot, but its where I see it. When browsing a folder of feeds, Slashdot's posts have inches of white space after the article is completed.
1 voteReader now removes excess whitespace at the end of the most of the posts.

Subscribe to feeds by tags
For example, I want to read posts from http://allboxing.ru/atom.xml tagged as "Professional Boxing" only (most of posts are not interesting for me). It would be very useful. Thank you!
1 voteI’ve implemented filtering
http://blog.bazqux.com/2014/04/filters-and-smart-streams.html
Select allboxing feed, search for tag:“Professional boxing” and press New filter => Show found items only.
It will hide all other items in this feed. -
Show proper error for invalid passwords.
I'm not sure if the password requirements (for mobile login) are very simple, but they're not documented, and when you try to set one you just get 'invalid password'.
That's either a UX bug or a documentation. But since there's not really any good reason not to allow complex passwords, I'm going to guess it's a UI bug.
1 voteIt’s already stated on the right side of password field (“must be non-empty”).
And I’ve just duplicated it in the error text too. Thank you for the idea!

Public feed limit greater then 20
It would be nice to allow public feeds to exceed 20 items.
Maybe an option can be added to the URL to select a limit (Like doing &limit=#)?
1 voteAdd ?n=100 to public feed URL. Up to 1000 elements can be returned.

Allow an option to have public feed only display new items
I would like a url option that will allow public feed to only display new items. No reason to grab hundreds of items on the feed when there may be only like 5 unread items.
1 voteAdd ?xt=user/-/state/com.google/read
option to feed URL.
Internally public feeds are just shortcuts for API calls and they handle API options (like n=100 for example) -
Smaller steps for resizing fonts
BazQux has a nices shortcut for resizing the article font (- and =). Only problem is that the steps are too large for my taste. The standard font size is too small, but when I increase it with = then its a bit tool large.
1 voteDone. Steps was made smaller in new release

Updated articles
A question regarding updated/edited articles.
How are they handled after marked as read? Do they reappear as unread again or will I never know about the changes unless I stumble over them again or check them manually?1 voteArticles are just updated and do not marked as unread.
Most article updates are typos or changed views/likes/comments count, or even some tracking URL change (completely invisible). For each two new posts there is an updated one.
To not overwhelm users with unnecessary information updates are not displayed.
If there is some post where you expect interesting updates you could try to star it and check manually.

Twitter text formatting
Just curious, how come that line breaks aren't shown properly in Bazqux. The text is always strung together in one line even though line breaks were made as you can see it on Twitter.
1 voteThank you for reporting it. I just forgot to implement it. New tweets will have proper line breaks.

Tags
I use PC and Iphone version of Bazqux. In the PC version, tags are not alphabetical and are mixed up and takes me time to fined the tags and article. For the Iphone version, they are alphabetical and much easier to find and tag articles.
1 voteSorry for very late reply. Just right click on the “Tags” in left panel and click “Sort tags”. Perhaps they were accidentally reordered using drag and drop so they’re no longer ordered alphabetically.

Add a "link" or "url" search option
I'd like to be able to search/filter the text in a url, either the specified link for the feed item, the address of links and pictures in the feed item's content, or both. (Assuming this sort of thing isn't possible yet.)
1 voteAdded ability to search for links in posts. Use link:example.com or link:http://www.example.com/some/page or link:example.com/*
Use item_link:example.com/post1 to ignore links in article text and only search for articles which itself link to specific URL.

Follow Facebook Groups?
Hi.Could it be possible follow Public Facebook Groups?
Thanks.
1 voteDone. But there are many problems:
- Private groups are not available.
- Content of most shared posts is not reported by Facebook API (so many wall posts are just empty).
- Subscribing to group with name (/groups/GroupName instead of /groups/1234) is currently impossible (you need to look into page source for fb://group/1234 and replace GroupName with numeric ID).

Handle longer tweets
Twitter's new longer tweets don't show up completely in BazQux. The text either cuts off with "..." or the posted link goes to the tweet on twitter.com rather than the actual link URL.
1 voteFixed. New tweets will show full text. Thank you for reporting this.
