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. test the old reader with firefox on android

    The currenrt behavior of buttons and links is extremely sluggish. It somtimes takes more than one second to get visible feedback. I can never be sure whether the "click" worked or not. Too much ajax I guess.
    I am using the most recent firefox. And yes, the mobile firefox is aterrible browser implementation with serious performance issues, but who wants privacy intruders like chrome?

  4. Fix feed

    I have 419 active YouTube subscriptions. Why I check YouTube daily for New vids some of the subscribers and videos are not even being shown in the feed. I got this account to show all YouTube vids because YouTube won't. And now I don't even know what's right

  6. integrate RSVP - rapid serial visual presentation - into your product

    A number of apps using RSVP to increase reading speed for screens are available, integrating one or more with the old reader would improve its functionality

  11. Add AI-powered ranking of articles

    Do you subscribe to too many feeds or too fast ones? Both? Me too. That's why I wrote a machine learning-based ranking service (https://github.com/piccolbo/rightload). But it needs to be integrated with a reader. It would also be more powerful the more people use it.

  15. Multiple UI issues after latest update

    The reader has been resetting itself to Dark Mode periodically. It's a quick keystroke to change it back but it still seems like a weird issue. Happens anywhere from every couple of days to multiple times per day, no history clears or anything in between.

    The (?) button and the Support option under the user profile also seem to be broken. Both cause the page to hang, accepting no futher inputs.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

  17. Some information is missing

    From RSS feeds of JACS journals some articles are missing.
    For example:
    http://feeds.feedburner.com/acs/jacsat
    from 20 articles on the cite mentioned above, 6 are missing when I check The Old Reader cite.
    So, it seems that some information is not transferred or transferred incorrectly. I am not sure if it is the case for all scientific cites or only for JACS journals.

  19. URGENT: Amendment needed to page on your website

    Good Afternoon,

    I hope this email finds you well.

    It has come to my attention that your website contains a link to a pdf about The nobel prize in chemistry, that has become erroneous. This link no longer works as the website no longer exists meaning the relevant information is no longer apparent as it was before. I have seen insight data and am now aware that your website was included in the list of referrers.
    As a matter of urgency, I would like to request that you update this link as soon as possible.

    The link on your website…
