Rated 3 out of 5
by ArtEze, 5 years agoIt does not work in Basilisk 2018, but it does in Firefox 56. Edit: Thanks for the link, it's interesting ... The 3 stars, on top of that, is my balance between that and other features, as the gmail feed throws permission denied in a high version of Firefox. Most WebExtensions work fine in Basilisk 2018, and I wish I could use FeedBro in Basilisk as it is better styled than Bamboo, and I downloaded all 17 versions but none worked.

1. You need to be logged on to Gmail for it (the Atom feed) to work
2. As said, Basilisk never had a proper WebExtension support - it doesn't support the needed APIs
--
AFAIK Basilisk never even officially supported WebExtensions - the support was experimental, not fully complete and functional and was dropped in January 2019. Did you base your 3 star rating on that?

PS. Given the number of security issues in all browsers, we would not recommend using browser versions that are so old.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Joey Wheel, 22 days agoFeedbro is compromised. It is communicating with a malicious IP: 50.87.175.165 According to AbuseIPDB this is for a word press brute force attack. It will slow up your internet browsing and it was making Google give me the "Are you a human" pop up when they get suspicious usage from a single device. I turned it off and the popups stopped. The only feeds I was tracking were a few people's tumblr pages. I had to ask around on forums at first because I legit thought I had a virus until I disabled the extension and no regular virus scanner was picking this up (by nature of how extensions work.)
Edit: I had ONE RSS feed I forgot about that wasn't a tumblr and must have been powered by wordpress (the feed author had a WP site.) Feedbro doesn't have anything in place to deal with broken feed requests. I had no way of knowing. - Rated 5 out of 5by Dfaure, a month ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by rgfcesar, 2 months agoA powerful extension that's worth an entire app. It can import OPML, divide feeds into folders, RSS reading panel... Really very complete. Congratulations to the developer for the product.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Narendran Gopalakrishnan, 2 months agoThe best among those I have tried. Recently chrome blocked it due to MV3, and I switched to Feedbro on Firefox, but find that Alt+{1,2,3,4,5} of firefox are overridden when on the Feedbro page. A minor hitch.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Jean-Michel Molinas, 2 months agoI like very much this applications but it is the third time I lost all my feed subscriptions (windows update, firefox synchronisation) and I found there is no way to save automatically my feed subscriptions somewhere I could find it in case of breakdown. Please could you implement such a feature?

- Rated 3 out of 5by AverageJoe, 3 months agoUI is somewhat counterintuitive; when I added a feed to "Root", its contents populated the extension's menu (when you click its icon in the extension menu), not what I would have expected-that's all. Seems adding all your feeds to one menu is not what most people would want to do (probably should be an option there to create a new folder). The options UI has gratuitous animations, with no apparent option to turn off animations.
