Hey, NewsBlur's developer here. What didn't you like about NewsBlur? Lots in the pipeline, but I loves hearing what's off-putting so I can fix it for everybody.

I like Newsblur more than the last time I tried -- I just signed up for a premium account. However, I'm still slightly frustrated because of this:

In Google Reader, I liked to look at all the feeds in a category and just see all the posts from each of those feeds in the reading pane, most recent first. I can almost do the same thing in NewsBlur with the "river of news," but it only shows me unread posts, which is usually OK but it's nice sometimes to be able to easily scroll back and re-read an older post without having to go dig up that feed.

Is there a way you could add an option to replicate the Reader-like behavior of showing the posts in a folder chronologically?

I'm actually really fan of how Google Reader worked. But I can change my habits to use a free (as in freedom) software, that's not a problem. However, I didn't find how to create a feed of shared items, and that's a huge deal-breaker for me, I really need this feature (like I said in my previous comment, I use it a lot). Also, I'd love an Android app…
