Feedr

Feedr is a feature-rich terminal-based RSS feed reader written in Rust. It provides a clean, intuitive TUI interface for managing and reading RSS feeds with elegant visuals and smooth keyboard navigation.

Features:

• Dashboard View: See the latest articles across all your feeds, sorted chronologically
• Feed Management: Subscribe to and organize multiple RSS/Atom feeds
• Feed Auto-Discovery: Paste any webpage URL and Feedr will detect and offer to subscribe to its RSS/Atom feeds
• Starred Articles: Save articles for later with a dedicated starred view
• Categories: Organize feeds into custom categories with create, rename, and delete support
• Tree View: Browse feeds in a hierarchical tree grouped by category
• Advanced Filtering: Filter articles by category, age, author, read status, starred status, and content length
• Dual Themes: Switch between a dark cyberpunk theme and a light zen theme with t
• Live Search: Instantly search across all feed titles and article content
• Summary View: "What's New" screen shows articles added since your last session with per-feed stats
• Read/Unread Tracking: Persistent read state tracking across sessions
• Mark All Read: Quickly mark all visible items as read with m
• Article Preview: Toggle an inline preview pane in the dashboard view
• Link Extraction: Extract and browse all links from an article with l
• Full-Text Extraction: Strip away summaries and read the actual article content inline via Mozilla Readability — manual on Shift+F, or auto-extract on refresh per feed with fulltext = true
• Help Overlay: Press ? for a scrollable keybinding reference overlay
• OPML Import: Bulk import feeds from OPML files via feedr --import <file.opml>
• Browser Integration: Open articles in your default browser
• Mouse Support: Click to select items and scroll with the mouse wheel
• Background Refresh: Automatic feed updates with configurable intervals and smart rate limiting
• Rate Limiting: Per-domain request throttling prevents "too many requests" errors (ideal for Reddit feeds)
• Vim-Style Navigation: Use j/k alongside arrow keys for navigation
• Rich Content Display: HTML-to-text conversion with clean article formatting
• Authenticated Feeds: Support for custom HTTP headers per feed (e.g., Authorization: Bearer ...) for private/authenticated RSS feeds
• Compact Mode: Automatic compact layout for small terminals (=30 rows), with manual always/never override in config
• CLI Config Management: Get, set, and list configuration from the command line (feedr config), or use the interactive TUI config editor (feedr config --tui)
• Configurable Keybindings: Remap any key action via the [keybindings] section in config.toml
• External-Command Hooks: Newsboat-style macros (pipe-to, exec) bound to keys, plus exec_on_new notifications fired per new item — all with shell-free argument templating
• Configurable: Customize timeouts, themes, UI behavior, and default feeds via TOML config
