Add Folder: disable Add Folder button when text field is empty

Feed icons: get more icons from Feedbin; get favicons from some tricky cases

Feed discovery: give less weight to feeds with the word “podcast” in them, because they’re probably not what we want

Refreshing: fixed bug where automatic refreshing might not happening after the computer wakes from sleep

Preferences > Accounts: Renamed “Create” account button to “Add Account”

NetNewsWire 5.0.3 Significantly enhanced performance during syncs and refreshes. Fetching articles from the database is also faster.

When running for the first time, and the user previously used NetNewsWire 3, it will automatically import NetNewsWire 3 subscriptions instead of the defaults for new users.

You can also import NetNewsWire 3 subscriptions via the new File > Import NNW3 Subscriptions… command.

Keyboard shortcuts: the 's' key toggles starred status. The 'r' and 'u' keys now both toggle read status (instead of setting read and unread status, respectively).

Articles view: articles where the feed icon is quite large would be slow to render — now they render as fast as other articles.

Articles view: a bug where keyboard shortcuts wouldn’t work after giving the articles view focus has been fixed.

Articles view: YouTube videos could end up small. Fixed.

Articles view: fixed a bug scaling images to fit in the view.

Fixed the space bar when running on Catalina. It wouldn’t advance to the next unread — now it will. (This was due to a change in JavaScript in Catalina.)

Fixed a crashing bug having to do with async database fetches for the timeline.

Feedbin syncing: fixed a bug where renaming a tag on the Feedbin site would result in feeds in NNW ending up at the top level.

Help menu: fixed the expired Slack link.

NetNewsWire 5.0.2 The app movement monitor has been updated to handle quarantined apps and translocation.

Normally we wouldn’t have pushed out a new release for a single bug fix, but this one is important — we were getting false positives on app movement, which was affecting some users negatively.

NetNewsWire 5.0.1 Crash fix: when the app is renamed or moved on disk while running, alert the user and quit the app. This prevents crashes that will happen due to renaming/moving. See Daniel Jalkut on App Movement Monitoring for more info.

(Probably) fix a crashing bug having to do with a callback being called more than once, when it was designed to be called just once.

Sidebar: deleting an empty Feedbin folder no longer makes the sidebar non-responsive.

Timeline: update UI more quickly when a feed icon is downloaded.

Timeline: reload the timeline when show-feed-names is toggled. This fixes a bug where switching between a folder and a feed with the exact same list of articles to appear in the timeline would result in display glitches.

Timeline and article pane: make sure the link for an article isn’t an empty string.

Article pane: stop blocking links containing the string “feedburner” — there are legitimate cases where that string appears.

Article pane: handle figures and iframes as we do images, so they fit in the view.

Article pane: fix white flash on first article load while in Dark Mode.

Preferences > General: add checkbox to hide the unread count in the Dock.

Preferences > Accounts: Updated the UI when a Feedbin user with an expired trial creates an account in NetNewsWire.

RSS parser: Detect RDF (RSS 1.0) feeds that lack an XML header.

RSS parser: Parse Atom-style dates that are missing a T character in the middle.

RSS parser: check for bad permalinks more aggressively. If they don’t contain a / character, then do not consider them permalinks.

RSS parser: don’t let author/title overwrite item/title.

About window: add link to NetNewsWire website.

Feedbin syncing: fixed a bug where starred articles could appear as unread.

Microblog Mac app sharing: when it has to launch the app first, it waits a little longer before sending it content, which should fix a bug where sometimes you get no content in that case.

Enable the Open in Browser command only when a single article is selected.

NetNewsWire 5.0b6 Okay — one last beta! Pretty sure, at least.

Opens preferences window in center of screen.

Centers main window on first launch.
