"Following" should show as a folder in the API
I am using gReader, and unless it's a failure of their implementation (which is possible), there isn't a way to view anything from people I'm following. I should be able to access each of the people I'm following as separate feeds under a "Following" folder (or "tag" as gReader calls them).

Fix the bug with the space bar
After I select a feed, pressing the space bar opens the first unread, and then the next, and so on. This also leads to the open folder on the left panel to close.

Interface / UI speed
Seems to me that the interface could be fake-speeded up quite easily. Examples:
1) If I mark all articles in a feed as read, the interface seems to be waiting for a response from TOR's server. But that's not necessary from a user's (and usability) point of view. Just hide that feed and that feed's articles on the user's computer locally. THEN send a message to TOR's server.
2) Moving feeds seems to similarly be waiting for TOR server responses. Suggestion: Save all changes on the user's machine locally first, then collect all the changes and send them to TOR's…

Remembering folder setting
It would be good if OldReader remembers folder setting such as which one was opened, which one was closed in previous login. Right now, it opens all folders up on login.

Add an option to fit images to width on a feed-by-feed basis.
Add an option to fit images to width on a feed-by-feed basis.
This would avoid the need to either squint at tiny images (e.g. comics) or use an excessive page zoom (which may interfere with other feeds).

do not remember me (my email and password) automatically when I register, but rather offer it as an option (“Keep me signed in” checkbox).
I’m a news junky and in order for me not to get constantly distracted by checking news, my wife lets me to check the reader at night, entering with her password, which I don’t know (we have only one computer). This is impossible with the current TOR because it remembers me/her instantly, and whenever I enter theoldreader.com, I am immediately led to my account with all the subscriptions.

Improve Multilingual Search
Currently searching functionality in Japanese does not work properly.
For example, Search with the keyword '東京'(Tokyo), the search result shows the feeds which contain any of '東' or '京'.
Please improve this functionality to get correct search result.

.. bigger preview pictures for youtube feeds (like it was in google reader).
But please do not use the actual video as feed content like "feedly" did since that takes much too long to load if you only want to quickly look through your feeds.

while you reading a post (aka A) and then scroll up and click space, you get a post (the top one you can see) that you just read expanded

Google Calendar feed coming through in German
Looks like you are stripping the "?hl=en" from the end of my Google Calendar feed and instead adding "?max-results=25". For whatever reason, this is making the "Where/When/Description" labels to get posted to The Old Reader in German rather than English.

Put a "mark all as read" button at the bottom of the list of posts.
If there are a lot of long posts it takes a long time to scroll all the way back to the top on Android.

Space bar should work like in Google Reder
Space is the ultimate navigation tool in Google Reader. It works like the N key but when the post is not fully visible, it scrolls down instead of jumping to the next post. And then at the end of the feed it jumps directly to ne next feed.
This there things allow me to navigate and read my news very fast and with only one key.

keyboard shortcut for next new post
Since the feeds are updated with posts at differing times, there are new posts that get lost among already read/old/recent posts when the reader updates. Instead of assigning j,n/k,p for next and previous posts, it would be convenient to have the ability to jump to the next new or unread post with (n,p) and then keep (j,k) for next and previous post.

Extend support for Atom Feeds (HTML in items)
Atom feeds can contain xhtml directly within their summary elements, via <summary type="xhtml">. TOR currently strips any tags when displaying these items and outputs only the text content.
Example: "Dashboard Feeds" generated by GitLab.

make logging in easier and possible with the keyboard only (without mouse click).
It would be great if I could store a link to theoldreader.com that already includes the email address I wanted to use for logging in. For example Google reader supported links like reader.google.com/?email=my@address.com, in which case the email address was automatically filled in and the password field focused.
Also a similar effect could be achieved if at least there was a keyboard shortcut or direct link to the login page (eliminating the need to grab the mouse and click after entering the url).1 vote -
