When refreshing the page or opening it later, all my folders (and all 550+ feeds) are expanded.

Right now the reading pane extends endlessly, making it non-optimal for reading, especially on wide screens.

Digg Reader deals with this by setting the width to 600px on screens 1280px wide or bigger and 521px on smaller screens.

Google Reader uses 650px width for the content.

I think Go Read should adopt a width similar to those mentioned for the content pane.

Not sure if this is a problem with the data that's returned from Google Reader import or?

Attaching images to show unread counts from Google Reader & Go after import.

Great work with this reader. It really looks like it might be my ideal replacement! Keep up the good work!

It would be nice if duplicate stories were combined when in the "all items" view.

To easily reproduce, I saw this when using the AP Top Headlines and AP Nationals feeds, frequently items are duplicated.

After import subscriptions from google reader I have some folders, but i can't manage it (rename, delete, etc). It's would great feature I think

Would be great if refreshed items were added onto the top of the list, rather than the whole list blanking then reloading.

On Google reader, this is done via the 'm' keyboard shortcut.

Currently I do no see a way to delete folders. You can delete subscriptions, but the unread items stay active in the folder. Once they are all read the folder still exists with no way to remove it.

it would be great to have the opportunity to unsubscribe from several subscriptions at once

I'm rather attached to the Google Reader behaviour, where j/k will move up and down the feed entries, opening each one and marking it as read as appropriate. In comparison, n/p simply move the cursor. I find this useful when I open my feedreader to skim a few headlines, but want to process them properly at some point in the future.

And not just the selected feed items. "Mark All As Read" should only mark the feed or folder selected and visible as read.

The responsive design hides the "subscribe" button.

https://github.com/mjibson/goread/blob/master/goapp/utils.go#L391 seems to only check for /favicon.ico. Several websites don't provide that, and instead provide a shortcut icon link tag.
Example: http://www.questionablecontent.net/

Half my feeds are missing their icons because of it :)

Would be really, really nice to be able to drag & drop feeds and move them around in the left panel, retaining that ordering.

Maybe for ads, sharing, marking as read/unread, etc. Or just for some space until the next story.

I looked through the keyboard shortcuts and searched the four corners of the article view, but failed to find a means to mark a single article as unread.

Intentionally missing, or just not implemented yet?

When importing from Google Reader, the folders appear in a random but consistant order. Can the user interface sort them alphabetically, much like the contents of each folder are sorted alphabetically?

This would help us users who have 60 folders and now have trouble finding things.

This should perhaps be an option.

I've
(i) import from google reader
(ii) import opml
(iii) manually enter the rss feed url

But still, the homepage shows "You don't have any feeds."
while i in got feeds in http://xxxxxxxxx.appspot.com/admin/all-feeds

I like to have a big icon in my Chrome new tab page to goread.io.

Support for offline would be nice too.

It would be nice to be able to toggle view of "read" items for a given feed when returning. When coming in for the first time, there didn't appear to be a way to view older articles from a feed.

The compact layout kicks-in too early at resolutions that could still comfortably hold the normal layout. I tend to keep my browser window halved on my 1080 monitor. At that size (a little less than 540px wide), the compact layout is used, which is kind of annoying.

I am willing to poke around on this myself if you point me to where the trigger width gets set.

From Google Reader help:

g then a:   go to all items
g then s:   go to starred items
g then u:   open subscription selector
g then t:   open tag selector
g then <Shift> + t:     go to trends page
g then d:   go to discovery page
g then e:   go to explore
g then p:   go to popular items

Being egocentric, I use only gt and gh :)

For example, one of my gun blogs shows the synopsis for a sharepoint entry -

It appears that the synopsis being shown (regardless of which folder or feed is selected) is in order of the (all items feed). In my example, the first item in my RTKBA (right to keep and bear arms) folder showed the synopsis for the first item under all items.

For those who log in rarely, the unread feed list is huge. Using infinite scroll like google reader would fix this.

Google Reader gave the user the ability to navigate news items with the n/p keys, resulting in news items remaining in a collapsed/unread state. This was useful for the purpose of scanning headlines before committing to expanding an article and marking it read. It would be great for goread to support this feature as well.

A feed could be broken by not linking with absolute urls but relative urls,
for example: https://developer.nvidia.com/news/feed

Currently this ends up in http://www.goread.io/

Example feed:
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sad/index.rss

When I try subscribing it says "could not add feed". I tried importing my subscriptions directly from Google Reader and as OPML, the Craigslist feeds didn't import correctly (they were listed but had no items).
