This is a workaround for the feature to have a "perfect" synchronization with FreshRSS (today Readrops only retrieves new articles, and not the read state).
It would be useful to have a way to perform the initial synchronization at will: it would drop the locally saved content of Readrops and retrieve only the unread articles.
It solves the case when:
you sync your FreshRSS articles in Readrops
you read some in FreshRSS app
you sync again Readrops and the articles you have read are still marked as unread
It is at the expense of losing all locally saved content, but this content is still available online, and a warning message asking confirmation to lose all locally saved articles could mitigate this.
Amd I guess it's easier and faster to implement than the read state sync, with equivalent value for the user :)
