You should also count for the people who switched to an RSS reader that isn't Feedly. I, for one, started using The Old Reader.

- tracker1 14y agoI'd love to give The Old Reader a try... but when signing in through google, they seem to want "Manage My Contacts" permission.. there is no legitimate reason for needing to see my contacts to sign up. I'm pretty mindful of Android app permissions as well.
- Tyr42 14y agoI think they've replicated the social features of the old Greader, so they want your contacts so you can share with them.
- tracker1 14y agoIf it said that it was asking for it and why, I may have allowed it, in any case it doesn't seem to ask for that anymore... :) Now, if my import would process already.
- abraham 14y agoWhen I was signing in, I removed the contacts scope from the auth URL and The Old Reader didn't appear to care that it couldn't access my contacts.
- smsm42 14y agoI tried that too. Currently there are 10000+ users in front of me in import queue. I hope they will be able to process it till July...
- colbyh 14y agoIn the last two days only 500 people in front of me have left the queue. Feedly definitely gets point for their speed, but as others have stated the layout just isn't for me.
