List of sources #4205

Hi,

Just discovered this app, fantastic design, love the smart feeds.

However, one thing that stood out to me was that sources have to be added manually and no list or db of sources to choose from, I'm just curious as to why that is?

It’s something we’ve thought about doing. It’s a lot of work — not just to come up with the list and to design and implement the UI for this, but to update the list as feeds come and go and as people ask to have their feeds included. So… we might do it some day!

Makes sense,

I have looked into building my own app for a few years as I've felt none have come close to the old pulse news app. Was an amazing app before LinkedIn bought it over and destroyed it, the tile design was a really clever and clean way to view your feeds with less "clicks".

I had built a working web based prototype but haven't had time to do anything since, life and other priorities got in the way.

I believe the app is really clean and not overwhelming exactly for this. Online there are tons of list that can be imported in few seconds and can be personalized by the user. No need for built in ones.
