Sorry about posting here. Couldn't find a bug report link on your website:<p>wheezy/sid (Really Mint Linux but whatever)<p>openjdk-7-jre:i386<p>$ sudo dpkg -i reader-1.1.1.deb<p>dpkg: error processing reader-1.1.1.deb (--install):<p>parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/control' near line 2 package 'reader':<p>error in Version string '${reader.version}': version number does not start with digit<p>Errors were encountered while processing:
reader-1.1.1.deb<p>Hope that helps.
Seems good, I like it. I might try it later on my server (hopefully it's not too heavy on the system, since I'm going to try it in a small vps).<p>But it's still another reader that I'll probably not use. Why? Because since there isn't an open standard for RSS reader I can't use it with the client I want.<p>I'm not saying it's your fault, as it sure isn't. But it's sad that we didn't learn this from the death of Google Reader. There were some talk about creating an open standard right after it's death, but nothing major came out of it.<p>This is also why I'm still using Google Reader, because every RSS reader out of there doesn't have either a mobile client or a website that I like. If there were an open standard, I could use the mobile client I want, the desktop client I want, and rely on the backend for synchronization and reading on computer without a desktop client.
Looks nice, just ran the installer on my Windows machine and besides needing 3 restarts for it to finally work, it is too buggy to use.<p>Importing my feeds works for 5 of them for a short while, after getting the items for the 5th feed it reverts to thinking I have no feeds at all.
Looks good, and I like the mobile web view. Key missing feature for me: oldest-first view.<p>[Edit]: Also, keyboard shortcuts (most important for me: jk for next/previous).
This looks pretty promising. Judging from the demo, they have the UI close enough. They need to offer it as a service, though. I like that I have the freedom to run my own server, but I really don't want to have to bother in practice.
I like the decisions so far! On a pure style/preference note, I prefer content over chrome to an almost absurd degree - the margins around the individual posts could be tighter maybe?
A Google Reader replacement for me is some sync-server with which I can sync read/unread between a native feed reader on my iPhone, my ThinkPad, my Android tablet and my iMac.
