I finally dropped Feedly

With the recent discussion about (successful?) profiling of voters, I do not want anymore anyone analyzing my reading habits. Feedly’s “Terms and Conditions” is a dead link by today while I remember them to run also detailed user analysis. Unfortunately, the next cloud news aggregator is buggy after all these years with updates occuring only sporadically. I therefore moved to Miniflux that works right out of the box. The only thing I wanted to change in templates/item.php is the following line from

<a href="<?= $item['enclosure'] ?>" class="image-enclosure" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank"><?= t('attachment') ?></a>

to display the thumbnails

<img src="<?= $item['enclosure'] ?>" class="image-enclosure" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank"><?= t('') ?>

screen

But even that’ si not possible as there is an excellent stand-alone news reader with Readkit on OS X.
