How this project is maintained

Roughly one issue in five opened in the past year never receives a reply. 99% of open issues come from outside the core team, so the backlog reflects real-world use rather than internal planning. 71% of tracked open issues have had no activity in three months, so the open count overstates what is actively being worked. Only 44% of issues opened in the past year have been closed. Three people close 85% of everything that gets resolved.

Detailed Description

Feeder is an open source Android feed reader app that aggregates RSS, Atom, and JSON Feed content.

The tool solves the problem of staying informed across multiple news and content sources without requiring account registration or cloud synchronization. Feeder works entirely locally on your device, parsing feed URLs and displaying their content offline. It supports importing and exporting feed lists via OPML, making it straightforward to migrate from other readers or back up your subscriptions.

Feeder suits users who prioritize privacy and want to avoid cloud-dependent services. It works well for anyone managing a personal collection of feeds without needing cross-device synchronization. The app is built with Jetpack Compose and Kotlin, making it maintainable and modern in its Android implementation. It includes notification support for new articles and follows Material Design conventions for its interface.

The project maintains steady activity with regular updates addressing both bug fixes and feature additions. Development includes responsiveness to user-reported issues and incorporation of community translations through a dedicated translation platform. The codebase shows ongoing refinement of the Android implementation and continued support across multiple distribution channels.
