Support for Feedly and other sync services

Very nice work, but it would be useful to me only when it has sync support. People tend to use many devices nowadays. I hope you can me it !

Thank you anyway :-)

Hey thanks for your suggestion. I am aware of the situation, that for most folks a rss reader without online sync support is mandatory. At the moment i have the situation, that i really want to use GNOME Online Accounts for a connection between an sync service and my application. I looked into the API and realised that there isn't a service Endpoint for RSS though. So i have 2 options now:

1. work with gnome people about a design/workflow for rss online services in gnome online accounts and make this work available to every rss reader implementation available or
2. implement my own backend service (feedreader people do this for example) and avoid a general solution

I am not sure which would be the best way to go at the moment. For 1. there should be discussed if its desired to have these providers in GOA and one should not forget about Ubuntu Online Accounts which would need these provider too. Additionally what happens on a linux system without GOA - for example elementary has their own online accounting system and i have no idea what kde folks are doing in this space. What happens if someone uses mate/xfce/openbox? Thats a though question and i have no idea how this will work out. For 2. this would be the simplest solution for an application developer. I only had to generalize the fetching algorithm and provide an credential service to log into the service provider. So i am sorry for the moment that i haven't decided this.
