RSSOwl is pretty much unmaintained #8
Description
Activity
thanks @genodeftest , I will check those out.
I like having a desktop client (everything is on the web these days, so my browser crashes with too many things open). The first couple I tried on alternative.to cost $$.
I'm still sticking to RSSOwl mainly because there's no other cross-platform RSS reader that support something as simple as feeds sub-subfolders.
I'd guess that about 50% of all classes need to be touched. Maybe 10%…20% of code needs to be rewritten. Out of ~300k lines of code that would still be >30k lines. If you pay someone to do that, I guess that's several months of full-time work.
You may try a kickstarter campaign.
RSSOwl hasn't seen any updates in years. This results in some problems:
How do we fix this? or do we discontinue RSSOwl?
Although I am a repository owner to RSSOwl I haven't used it in years any I won't have time to get anywhere near fixing RSSOwl myself. And I think it would be a good idea to stop developing and using RSSOwl in favor of one of the other >100 open source alternatives to RSSOwl.
