Could be used together with a cron job. Transmission doesn't seem to support it natively

might be better to run in background only while the app is running? think it's a bit intrusive to create a cron job that runs regardless of whether the app is being used (if this is what u mean by "cron job")

uhh you mean to spawn like a tokio task in the TUI that would check rss feeds in the background while the app is running like every hour?

the user would have to do it by himself this is what nning/transmission-rss is doing for example

yep imo this would be preferred - with users allowed to configure a custom refresh time (1min, 5mins, 30mins, 1h, 24h, etc)

nah this is a chore LOL i know it'd definitely be way simple for most users if the app itself would handle refreshing the rss feeds

we can support both use cases just fine, in fact implementing the command first will make easier implementing the background fetching
