Liferea RSS Client

Liferea RSS Client.

Liferea RSS client, the name is short for "Linux Feed Reader" and is a news aggregator for online news feeds.

It supports the major feed formats including RSS/RDF and Atom and can import and export subscription lists in OPML format.

Liferea is intended to be a fast, easy to use, and easy to install news aggregator for GTK+ that can be used with the GNOME desktop.

It should be noted that it works very well with Cinnamon desktop as well.

Liferea features a script manager, in which users can add custom scripts that run whenever a certain action occurs.

Liferea also supports podcasting.

It comes with some pre-installed RSS feeds, some which you might want to get rid off, since they are more similar to what "Did I Do Today", woke up, went to the bathroom, brished my teeth etc.

You get the point...

The client itself is excellent, with a simple but not ugly user interface and it works as promised.
