Future Plans

I have ambitious plans for the future, there are many features

Building a great RSS Desktop Client

At minimum I need to build a functionally complete RSS reader which will include:

Feed management
Beautiful UI (gonna be hard!)
Multimedia support
Export stories to Markdown

Performance

Needs to make use of threads with UI feedback on processing (need to use tasks & iced::stack)
Loads of caching
Respect 304 (not modified)

Pro-Decentralization

Import/Export

Many import/export options (OPML + full database)
Import items from FreshRSS (stories)

Discovery Service

RSSCAR will crawl links from the content to discover new feeds. This adds a crucial discovery feature that can help people actually browse the independent web without worrying about censorship.

Darknet Support

Censorship resistance matters! Tor & I2P sites should be first-class citizens and handled accordingly.

Podcasting 2.0

Where possible the podcast namespace should be supported (transcriptions, chapters, etc)

Information Management

Full-text search

Basically mandatory

requires triggers to stay up to date...
Can help a great deal with performing as a useful search engine

Auto archive?

Add stories to wayback machine

Markdown Export

Export stories for Logseq/Obsidian (how will you get keywords/tags?)
