So, many people have already had the time to switch from Google Reader. That means people have to be able to import feeds by OPML. Right now it seems like Google Reader is the only import option.
There seems to be https, that is very nice. But theoldreader.com offers me this too. I need an import option before trying this out.

#122Instead of calling it a donation, just call it the 'pro' version and add like a supporter badge on the header or let them do something silly like change the color of their header like on HN. Will probably get more funds that way and won't get cynical people to roll their eyes at questionable use of the word 'donation' whether it is or not.
Yeah, but we're all geeks here. It can't be that hard to splice together some custom CSS to make hacker news look like whatever you want. Let me just click view source and OH GOD PG FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY WHY ARE YOU USING NESTED TABLES IT'S 2013!!?!?!!111questionmark! Sorry, blacked out for a minute there.
been there, tried that. ended up just using some basic css rules to keep it from crawling apart to 1080p :(
@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);
@-moz-document domain("news.ycombinator.com") {
body > center > table {max-width: 960px;}
.default {padding-right: 22px;}
textarea {width: 100%;}
form {padding-right: 18px;}
}

#123It would be nice the possibility to import also from other sources other than Google. At this point many people stopped updating their feed on Google Reader.
Yeah, I moved to self-hosted Tiny Tiny RSS after Bloglines went down. OPML import would be great. On the flip side, OPML export is also a requirement for me - I don't want to re-enter all of my feeds.
OPML import is on its way :)

#124Jamie, I am getting about 10 errors a second in my console: Uncaught TypeError: Object sufio._xdWatchInFlight(); has no method 'apply' reader-29b4dd587f1ca6b5f0d639aac64ce9bf.js:1 e.(anonymous function) reader-29b4dd587f1ca6b5f0d639aac64ce9bf.js:1 Pretty print the error location from chrome: e.setInterval = function() { var e = t.call(arguments, 0), n = e[0]; return e[0] = function() { try { n.apply(this, arguments)…
Superfish? I'm not even using superfish. Intercom is so users can contact me and pusher is so I can push you new entries without requiring a reload.
yikes. It was a browser extension that uses superfish to inject ads. the extension allows you to disable this feature, but it still pulls in superfish. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/orbvious-interest/...
I removed the extension and the payload is more like 1MB. Still seems hefty but not as much of a concern to me.
I also noticed that content wasn't gzipped. should be a simple matter to add that to nginx.
Re: Show HN: Yoleo – A Beautiful RSS Reader
#125Why does everything have to be described as "beautiful"? Yes, it looks nice. It's not fucking Beethoven, it's a website that appears to do a damn fine job of managing RSS feeds. Yet every damn day we see another HN front-page article about such-and-such a "beautiful" web-app. Edit: also, in this instance, a good chunk of the beautiful design seems to have been lifted from Google's style, from the icon style to the wa…
Beautiful is not just in the design, I've put a lot of effort into the mechanics of how things work, as well.
Re: Show HN: Yoleo – A Beautiful RSS Reader
#126How what kind of backlog will it keep for unread items? It's not that weird for me to not pay attention to a feed or collection of feeds that I don't have time for at the moment. This is one of my main issues with newsblur, which has a ridiculously low limit of 500 per feed max (based on the number of subscribers the feed has), if you aren't a paying member and it's a low subscription feed it could be as low as 25 po…
Right now, the backlog is infinite, and I'd like to keep it that way if I can.

OPML is certainly coming, next week I hope :)

#128I created a new account and didn't use the option to sign in with my Google account. The importer didn't ask me to sign in with my Google account, but is happily waiting for feeds to import from Google Reader. Surely it isn't able to do that without me authorizing it first? Also, are there any plans for mobile apps? If yes, please tell me that you're going to charge for them.
Once your spot is up in the queue, you'll be prompted to import.

#129This looks pretty fantastic. I've been searching for a good browser option outside of Feedly, which just doesn't do it for me. I agree that more information about the product and the people behind it would be nice, however, I'm still eagerly signing up when I get a chance today. :)
Some more info about me was posted here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5826803
Re: Show HN: Yoleo – A Beautiful RSS Reader
#130Looks cool, I would pay for it, please just charge and don't pretend it's a donation.
I'm not pretending. You can use it for free if you can't afford it :)
