Feature Request: RSS Thumbnail view #131

Open xanthos84 opened 4 years ago

xanthos84 commented 4 years ago

hi :)

really like v3 and the idea of JARR! but can you maybe add another view for the rss feeds like this one: image

Feedly has it too (which costs money and sucks), and there is no other usable rss reader out there which has this feature.

Thanks

Hi !

Well first of all, this view demands a rework of the UI and the API (and possibly the crawler, see below) so it might not be in the upcoming little features I have in mind.

Also from what I understand this view implies that every card as a related images, right ? It's possible to retrieve such images through opengraph most of the time (which implies some work on the crawler and the models), but it may look weird for links missing such images. Should we filter them out ? Also how the view should look on a mobile device ? If they just are one behind another I guess it would be just like the current article list but with images. Would that work for you ?

Okay, I understand about the rework - even though it would be a really unique selling point for this script :)

Every card is a image from the rss feed... but i am not sure if its opengraph? I dont know.. If no image is available, a placeholder should be shown instead.

On mobile one after the other should be fine, but this would be the best option: https://i.imgur.com/cZJAncP.png

and about when there is no image, this could be the best option: https://imgur.com/UcokeDb
