RSS preview in Edge
Hello. This may be more suited as an idea for a separate browser add-on, but I'll write about a problem that bothers me. Chrome-based browsers don't have built-in rss preview support. There are a lot...

Right now Firefox does not show RSS feed previews any better than Edge.
I'm on it right now, it just shows a basic XML preview with bunch of texts, nothing fancy or convenient for the end users. still the best option is using extensions

This feature was recently removed from Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/feed-reader-replacements-firefox
Add that to it: https://addons.mozilla.org/ru/firefox/addon/rsspreview/?src=collection#&gid=1&pid=1
and you'll see that on the screenshot, too. I started this topic in the hope that someone would want to move this kind of rss tapes to the Edge.
- HotCakeXApr 13, 2020MVPWell I mean Mozilla removed it because "these features have an outsized maintenance and security impact relative to their usage".
so that means they already have done it, experienced it and got the results that it is not a good idea. so if Edge adds that back to the browser it would be a step backwards I think- Dmstarchikov92Apr 13, 2020Copper Contributor
HotCakeX I found a solution to the problem. I set https://ssl.microsofttranslator.com/bv.aspx?ref=TVert&from=&to=en&a=https%3A%2F%2Fchrome.google.com%2Fwebstore%2Fdetail%2Fthe-rss-aggregator%2Fffhafkagcdhnhamiaecajogjcfgienom and everything was fine. There is also a preview in a very convenient way for me. And you can subscribe.
