- Rated 4 out of 5by hoanglan87, 5 years agoOne key point missing to perfect: sync across browser, do you have any manual way to do that?
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13020120, 5 years agoI've used this extensions for at least an year with Firefox for Windows, Linux and macOS and it does a good job. It has a problem with the contextual menu for a feed. On Linux and on macOS, it disappears as soon as I raise the right mouse button (or I raise my hand after a 2 finger press). Keeping the right mouse button pressed and selecting an entry doesn't work either.

posted 5 years ago"NOTE 3!: Firefox 66+ on Linux and MacOS has a regression bug that messes up feed tree right-click menu. Workaround: open about:config and set "ui.context_menus.after_mouseup" to true."

- Rated 4 out of 5by Mellobob, 6 years agoI use this app lots of times every day and really love it. I was getting a bit desperate that I couldn't delete feeds and found that setting ui.context_menus.after_mouseup to TRUE fixed that. Now, my only beef is that duplicate articles are not collapsed: eg, the BBC site may have 10 articles all with the same header and it becomes distracting to page though them all (INOreader has this option). Thanks!

- Rated 5 out of 5by tterac, 6 years agoI was using Reeder on Mac and was looking for one that works on Windows. I tried many RSS reader apps (including online apps, Windows native apps and browser extensions). Among them Feedbro is the only one that works with all my 250+ RSS URLs with no problem.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12442412, 6 years agothis extension has great functions,but It's a disaster when indexdDB error comes to me(many times) ,even though I refreshed firefox at about:support, it still comes to me after a while(didn't update firefox),btw my firefox version is 68.0b7 (64 bit)
I hope this extension could be stable , and if this problem can't be fixed, I only have to turn to inoreader= = - Rated 5 out of 5by dpurple, 6 years agoMust-have extension for me, thank you for making it! My only question/suggestion would be if there is a way to export/import the starred items list?
- Rated 3 out of 5by untrained, 6 years agoI had high hopes for this extension but the interface feels really clunky and unintuitive. I'm providing this feedback hoping that at least some of these points can be improved in future updates.
- I keep expecting to be able to right click an entry in the article list to display a context menu to mark it as unread/read, mark this and all previous articles as read/unread, star, etc., but this opens it in a new tab instead and I see no way to change that functionality.
- For some reason sometimes when trying to switch between feeds by clicking on one the first click only highlights the feed and a second click is necessary to actually switch to it, this is intermittent though. (This may have something to do with having two Feedbro tabs open and adding a new feed on one of them)
- Selecting "Show only unread articles" doesn't refresh the list so it initially seems like it's not doing anything.
- When changing the "Feed entry content" it's not obvious that only new articles will be effected so again, this initially appears to do nothing.
- When using the Dark theme, if using the full article view and the page includes hard-coded dark fonts the text is almost invisible.
- The Feedback link for the Firefox extension for some reason brings me to the Chrome Web Store instead of the Firefox Add-ons page.
- The tooltip for marking an article as read reads "Mark this entry read/unread - Shortcut: m" but this seems to only work intermittently, if it stops working refreshing the page allows it to work again.
- It's great that this supports keyboard shortcuts, but for some reason arrow keys aren't used. I would expect to be able to move through the list of articles with arrow keys.
It's obviously not all negative though, I was surprised that this RSS reader supports custom rules and I love how much control this gives me to change what is displayed. The functionality to search for RSS feeds in the current page is simple but also very useful. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13283676, 6 years agoI propose to add such a function starred items cannot be deleted without confirmation. Or fasten the star-marked news. To avoid accidental deletion.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14643647, 6 years agoOne of the best RSS reader not only on browser, but ever! This addon can be alternative to big services and can do much more than them. Thank you a lot Nodetics.
