Hacker News Reader

I understand why a lot of these extensions are not allowed, simply because of security issues. But I agree on RSS needs more work.

I continue to think RSS Reader should be a function of browser and shouldn't require a third party web or app to do it. In modern days I wish that could be married with a personal LLM so I could ask question about things I have read but I cant find it easily.

I like having my RSS as a separate entity of my browser. I have a server that runs an RSS aggregator (FreshRSS), and I can hit it via multiple clients, from the built-in web to a mobile app.

There's a spotty history of this. Internet Explorer 7 had the ability to subscribe to RSS feeds: https://www.bnsf.com/customers/rss/browsers-ie7.html

Opera back in the day pioneered it
