Proposal: Simplified Stream #233

howdy! very happy to discover this app as it replaces the hole rainbowstream left in my heart. i have an extremely niche use case where i have an apple iic serving as a terminal for a raspberry pi, and the results are displayed on a CRT. i was curious if you'd consider implementing a "simple mode" where the URL and other character-hungry bits are excluded from the stream so more headlines can be displayed at once.

i understand that i am probably the only person on the planet using your app on a computer from the 80's, but i figured i might not be the only person to benefit from a more concise, less interactive stream in some fashion or another. apologies if i've violated any protocol here as this is, in fact, my first ever ticket submitted on github at all! old computer tax attached below for the laughs:
