Looks beautiful, interesting pay model. Seems like enough people still use RSS readers... Just 2 feature requests: 1.) Let us change the one color :) That red is pretty, but distracts from the content. Dustin Curtis got this right on his minimalist design in that the one-color isn't used in the actual content. 2.) Responsive design: Iv'e been removing apps from my phone for weeks and I couldn't be happier. Far less a…

Agree - the red is way too much.

We can tone down the red if enough people think it's jarring, I love this kind of feedback!

Clever name! I pressed "import" and it claims to be importing my feeds from Google Reader, even though I never gave it a password or feed or connected through Google. I wonder how that works...

You're in a queue, you are going to be redirected to auth as soon as your turn is up. There are a bunch of people trying to import at the moment.

I would probably start with removing the red from the titles first. Removing the red completely would take away from the overall design which is too nice to mess up.

I always think a straight forward headline/copy relationship should be achievable with spacing, and maybe font-size before adding bold or a color.

If it's still too much (remember, this is an every day kind of app!) maybe the active links on the right could go non-red, then if it's still too much the border-left on the active links on the right.

Again, grats on shipping something that looks good.

theoldreader.com just chokes on my 100 feed list, and feedly has just been flaky for me. Here's to hoping this works well with a mobile interface!

The mobile interface isn't responsive yet. I have users with over 400 feeds, so it should be all good!
