- culi 2mo agoDid any other browser ever have this?
- orzi 2mo agoI do not think so. It was such a GOOD feature. Imagine opening your browser and you had all your news instantly in your bookmark under address bar. I loved Firefox for this. But, thankfully, you can have almost the same thing with Livemarks extension.
- throwawsy7273 2mo agoOpera used to have a built in RSS reader that was better in my opinion. Some of the people behind Opera has built Vivaldi, which also contains an RSS reader. I haven't used it myself, but it looks promising.
- culi 2mo agoSeems risky to rely on a browser as your RSS reader. I know you could always export your OPML file but not every reader seems to import/export that spec correctly

- TiredOfLife 2mo agoSomebody used Live Bookmarks?
- sunaookami 2mo agoYes, me. It was a good feature.
- bandrami 2mo agoThey moved the functionality from Firefox to Thunderbird IIRC, which seemed like a desperate attempt to get anyone to use Thunderbird.
