Hello
I used Googles RSS reader in the past, then switched to Feedly when the service stopped, and now I found Newsblur which looks and feels much better.
Both previous cases I used the J and K keys to navigate, and jumping on the next item hitting J marked the previous item that I just read as read. This was a very convenient way, since may times I open the feed but I don’t have time to check the item that is opened.
However we miss this option in Newsblur. I don’t want to use automark after some time, because many times I just close the browser.
Now I use manual marking using the M button, but this way I have to press M followed by J. If we had an option for example like “J key also marks item as read”, that would be nice.
So optionally the function of hitting J key would be in order:
- mark current item as read
- jump to next item
All this by pressing only one key.
