Notifications aren’t free so I limit them to having to be manually setup per-feed. If I ever introduced a NewsBlur Premium Pro tier, I’ll include notifications and training by folder.
Instafetch is really only a debugging tool, useful for somebody who publishes their own blog and wants to make sure it’s being fetched. Or if a feed is misbehaving. If you want a feed to publish more frequently, going premium is the way to do it. If the feed publishes at least once a day, it’ll be fetched every few minutes.
Goodies is dated, that’s for sure. I don’t see a need for an official browser extension. There is the bookmarklet, which does the job of sharing and saving stories from outside NewsBlur. That could be a browser extension, of course, but the functionality is all there already.
Boosting feed polling shouldn’t be necessary. Go to Statistics for a feed and see the frequency. Happy to discuss individual sites.
2FA auth isn’t on the roadmap yet. I don’t see a need for it.
We do support PuSH for all feeds and have for years. Opening Statistics will show you whether a feed is published in real-time.
The Android app has had Statistics for years now! Android: Statistics dialog · Issue #1239 · samuelclay/NewsBlur · GitHub
Agreed on the custom domain needing a login, but I’m OK with that tradeoff.
