Sort (and sync) by date
I've just imported from Reader, but I'm having to comb through 2000+ updates from 4 years ago. Limiting the period in which to sync would be helpful.

Mark as all as read by date option
In Google reader, until it's unfortunate demise, you can "mark all as read" but choose "items older than x." When sometimes you come online after days away from your feeds (vacation, a great weekend, long work binges, etc.) that is an incredibly useful feature.

Refresh button for all items.
There is a refresh button when scrolling through just a single feed. Why not one when scrolling through "all items?"

Ability to turn off any social features!
I just want to read my news in a quick way with a simple interface, no social anything which disturbs the clean interface. no recommendations, trends, ...
So if i could turn all these features off under settings, that would be great.
Ability to email an article to someone else is enough.

RSS Widget to include RSS Streams in a Web Page
I wish a widget to include several RSS Streams into my website pages. The widget should be customizable (width, color, date of the feed, URL-source or original source name)

Create a way to manage folders.
When I am on a feed, and I want to remove it from a folder, there isn't a way to do this. Or, if I want to create 5 new folders, there isn't a way to just create them. The dragging and dropping method isn't working for me, the way the how to says it should. Have a manage folders page, where we can manage all the items and folders, like the favorites page of our browsers.

It would be nice if we could select more than one feed to move to a folder at a time.
If we could highlight a "bunch" of our rss feed titles, to be moved to a folder, and perhaps right click-copy-paste to the new folder.

tidy display of posts with pictures
Posts with pictures at the top align the first line of the text to the right of the image and then there's a big gap before the text continues below the image. It would be awesome if you could prevent this from happening somehow.

Resize text
It would be nice to be able to make the text of blog posts bigger, especially as the sidebar cannot be tucked away to allow for more screenroom.

Embed Popouts
The original reader has a feature where known embeds have a link which pops the embed out into a new small browser window. This allows you to listen to video/audio while continuing to browse your feeds.

Reconsider your decision not to support IE8
I appreciate your reasoning not to support IE8, but the sad truth is that MOST companies restrict their browers to IE8 because they are woefully behind the times! Wish you guys would reconsider or I'll have to use something else at work.

Move the 'unsubscribe' button
The 'unsubscribe' button and 'mark all as read' button are too close to each other, and the wrong button could be pressed by mistake. Suggestion is to move the unsubscribe button to the other side of the screen, or simply elsewhere.
NB : There was already a suggestion for this which has been marked as 'completed'. However they're still right next to each other, so submitting this again.

Make a sister site, yeoldereader.com, which is exactly this site except that "The Old Reader" is replaced by "Ye Olde Reader" everywhere.

Sort posts by the time of update
Sort posts by the time of appearance in the reader. Currently - if I understand it correctly - the posts are sorted by the time of publication. Due to the delays in the feed updates, it often happens that updated posts don't appear on top of the list and I miss them.

Private Blogs
Is there a way to store private blog addresses? I would like to have a central location for storing blog even if I have to click out.
