I installed on the advice of @mckinley newsboat but to test it I need feeds to follow, and I haven't any that comes in mind, advice ?
Also every pod has atom feeds for the pod itself as well as every user đź‘Ś

@mckinley Some of them are obligatory of course. :-D
Thanks, If they are mandatory, I should add them to my feeds now.
Thanks
@tkanos Yes, indeed. I just open XKCD articles in the webbrowser using the default keybinding o. Far from optimal, but what can you do? There are possibilities to somehow™ render images in some terminals, but I forgot how that is called and it didn't seem to be straight forward when I looked at it. And then teaching that to Newsboat via a macro is probably a whole other story in itself.
@lyse Image rendering in terminals is usually done with Sixels and it's not straight forward. A Newsboat developer has confirmed that it won't be implemented any time soon because of complications with ncurses.
Photon supports image rendering with sixels. It's just a feed viewer. It have a database or anything, it just pulls in feeds specified on the command line and displays the items chronologically in a grid view.
It works alright for XKCD. It looks a lot better in the article view. The images aren't downscaled very well.

@lyse @mckinley Sixel images aside: On X11, you could also grab the terminal’s X11 window ID and just overwrite what’s there. That’s what w3m does. (Doesn’t appear to work in my VTE terminal, but XTerm does.)
Pretty wonky, of course. 🥴
