Hacker News Reader

Most servers implementing ActivityPub also allow RSS/Atom subscriptions.

Hubzilla allows you to subscribe to feeds as "channels," but it doesn't provide a great feed reader experience from my limited use. I have only made accounts with Mastodon, Pixelfed, and Hubzilla, so entirely possible that some of the others do interesting things with feed subscriptions/reading.

feed reader on Vivaldi is also pretty bad. Right off the top of my head:

- no right click to adjust poll interval, default is every 5 minutes(!)

- no ability to re-poll a single feed

- no right click to edit interval, must use main app settings

- subscribe button doesn't allow interval settings

- no feed categories

- no feed ordering

There's more but I feel like a jerk just going off about something free that nobody asked me to try. I want to investigate submitting a PR, but I am in limbo as I'm precluding from consorting with G.

I would rather have my microblogging system look more like a feed reader than the opposite. E.g. folders, search, notes, re-export multiple curated feeds...
