RSS lets me see the content I care about without black box algorithms getting in the way.
This is so important to me that I wrote a feed reader as a browser plugin so I don't need to worry about a service disappearing some day.
If you're curious it's Brook[1], and if you like hacking on things, it's open source[2]. There's a branch that works on Chrome, but I really like Firefox's support for showing content in a sidebar.
I really like this, well done! I was actually thinking of getting something like it the other day.
Can I suggest keyboard navigation (basically "go to next unread") and "only show unread items"? It would be great to be able to press a key and go to the next unread feed.
