  2. Exporting feeds

    Hello! I have imported my feeds from Google Reader. I added some subscriptions. What if I want to export my feeds to another service? Do you have such a feature?

  3. API for subscribing to feed

    I know there's a suggestion for an API, but that's just a huge vague task.

    I'm just suggesting something for adding feed urls via a get request....

    http://theoldreader.com/add_feed?s=http://blog.skepticallibertarian.com/feed/

    or some such ( yes, that just happened to be the feed I was adding now ).

    I was trying to add a new feed via Google's reader extension, and since it was possible to manually decide services to parse the RSS feed, I wanted to specify your service.

  4. Do you read all these suggestions?

    It just really felt like the idea I just posted was going into a void and would never be read.

    Perhaps a problem with using uservoice for customer interaction instead of email support.

  5. Unread feeds button?

    Dear Old Reader,

    My feeds are not appearing chronologically and I need to individually click items to read them.

    It would be amazing to have a way to click a button to just read the unread ones. (Clicking "Home" or "All Items" has not worked for me).

    Apart from this, I would like to commend you on a very nice program!

  6. Selectively mark posts as (un-)read

    Could you implement a function to mark posts "older than ..." as read?
    Would be also nice to set specific feeds as read.

    Thanks :)

  8. Sort by getting date and tome

    Sometimes new posts are below the posts I have marked as unread (I have the reader set up to show unread posts only, newest on top).

    It seems, that the items are sorted by the date and time the item was created and when the feed is read and contains posts older than the items I have already seen, then these older posts go below the posts I have seen.

    Then, to read newly found posts I have to scroll down and again mark the posts I have seen before as unread.

    Would it be possible to add an option…

  11. turn off desktop notifications

    I don't want desktop notification, but clicking the wrench icon and selecting disable removes it from my running applications in Chrome. How do I just turn off notifications?

    “Uservoice isn’t a support center. Either way you should receive an e-mail with a confirmation link. In my case I had to wait for the e-mail around 20 minutes, so by the time you’ve posted this you should have already received it. ;)”

  14. link accounts

    I log-in through Google, but want to link that account to my Facebook account. If I log-in through Facebook, it shows that I have no subscriptions since that account is apparently empty. How to I link the two accounts?

  15. Allow me to transfer a Google-linked account to an Old Reader account

    I initially created my account as a Google-linked account, and I now regret having done so, as I'm trying to get away from having Google track all of my activity online. It would be nice if I could create an Old Reader account without the link to my Google account and transfer my feeds to that.

  16. link to share to invite people to follow

    Other services have a link and sometimes a graphic that can be posted on a person's blog and will allow readers to follow with one click. Is there such a feature with The Old Reader?

  17. Update CNN more often!

    When I used Google Reader CNN was updated almost instantly. Now I rarely have anything from CNN and it looks like the last time you updated was almost 12 hours ago. This is pointless!

  19. Delete old stuff

    I feel that the interface is slow and I suspect the reason is that my feeds have many entries.
    I think it would be great if you let me configure on a per feed basis if I want old entries (ones I already read) to be kept or not.
    Most of my feeds are about things I don't care about after reading, so I want them to be deleted if that will speed things up
