[FR]: Separate "read updated" articles from "new unread" articles #543

Open akinokonomi opened 3 years ago

Brief description of the feature request

I think it would be nice if articles which were updated after they were already fetched would have a different highlight from just new articles, and not be considered as new but as *updated*.

I am saying that if they could be distinguished in some way, not mixed with other new articles, it wouldn't be so bothersome and would actually become useful.

Maybe they even should not count as "unread". Though I'm not sure about this one. No, they should.

We are talking about colors in FEEDS list right? If so how would you distinguish feeds with new articles from feeds with updated articles? Currently this is combined:

No, about articles list.

Currently all articles that RSS Guard consider new (with Ignore changes in article body when new articles are being fetched disabled) are just bold.

It will also be a big help in situations like that https://github.com/martinrotter/rssguard/issues/640.

But in article list, there is no color for new articles either. So we are talking about colors in feed list after all?

Sorry, by "highlight" I did not mean "colour highlight", I meant "emphasize". And by "different highlight", I meant "different from bold", for example bold italic.

No, about articles list exactly.
