I suggest you ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. Toggle button for subscription list sidebar on left left or right

    Add a toggle button to move the subscription list between the left and right sides. This reduces the likelihood and severity of a sore right hand caused by always using the same hand to scroll (on touch-screen tablet)

  2. document your subscription plans

    I read the home page, the "learn more" / "Product tour" and I can find no mention of plans available or the cost. The only hint I got was the option to try "premium" free for a month on the signup page with an explanation that there are larger plans.

    I'd like use something I can support financially, but I'd like to know the cost up front.

  5. importing posts from tumblr and other "closed" social networks ?

    hello, i've just logged in after years, and was struck by the diversity and range of stuff on old internet blogs.

    Sadly a lot of these have died or moved on to social media platforms.
    Perhaps if there was a way to get posts from closed networks onto reader we could get a taste of the old internet without getting sucked into closed platforms and eternal scrolling.
    It's quite striking how much we have lost in the last couple of years.

    Maybe there's a different approach ? The current product is perfect but perhaps if there was a way to…

  8. Bug with youtube favicon

    When I imported some youtube feeds from an opml file they have the url like so:
    https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=XXXXX

    However, I currently have the seem feed in my rss that's:
    http://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=XXXXX

    The problem is only the http one has a YT favicon. The https one ends up with a generic rss thumbnail. Since the http one redirects to https they should both have the same thumbnail.

  9. Changing font size within the article area

    Would be a very helpful feature for accessibility without having to change the whole page structure by page zoom which affects the subscription column, buttons and overall readability.
    Thank you.

  13. Get emails delivered to Newsletter subscriptions

    Many the blogs I read don't support RSS, but do send their posts in a monthly newsletter.
    The ability to subscribe to an news letter with an oldreader would be useful.
    See https://www.inoreader.com/ as a reference.

  16. M\ake it possible to log problems directly rather than having to enter it here.

    I'm a paying user, and I am getting 405 errors when I try to log in, or to do a "forgot password" (which I haven't, but was trying to see if I could actually make something work).

  17. make download reliable

    If i don't spend 2 hours to download just one podcast mp3,
    I won't be able to get one.

    So i would call play.podtrac.com and traffic.libsyn.com are unreliable.

    Support@theoldreader.com reject my msg.

    Otherwise, it is good.

  19. Fix Shift/Ctrl-Click opens the target on the current tab

    Hello!

    I have a problem with the web interface of TheOldReader. In almost all web browsers users can control where a clicked link should be opened:

    • Control+Click to a URL opens the link in a new browser tab;
    • Shift+Click to a URL opens the link in a new browser window.

    That works in TheOldReader if I click on the title of an article. Unfortunately, TheOldReader tries to enforce a different behavior. If links are clicked inside an article TheOldReader opens the link in the current tab which is unexpected and very inconvenient.

    For me this is extra inconvenient because I…

  20. The "Star" button does not remove the added article from Pocket after deleting it.

    Currently, flagging an article as an asterisk adds it to the Pocket app. After removing the asterisk, the article is also removed from Pocket. Can this be changed?
