Improve the nitter feed parsing #4

Closed mzfr closed 1 year ago

mzfr commented 1 year ago

When you add nitter RSS and the way it gets displayed is really weird and confusing.

This is not the issue of the existing feed parser or anything. It is just there would need to be a custom nitter feed parser that will actually display tweets in a much better way.

In my mind, I basically see a more beautified version of the tweet in more of a card format. And the card has information on whether the tweet is a reply or the original tweet. Also, display the name of author

Well just realized, if we edit the parsers we will have to do a lot of work modifying the storage as well. So a better way would be to just extract the author name from the URL itself.
