Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported behavior on an iPad with feeds stored in Apple iCloud: opening an external link in Safari causes all feeds to refresh. Review the existing feed-update behavior and settings to determine whether a temporary pause or configurable update timing is feasible. Done should mean external-link reading no longer triggers an unusable refresh, with the chosen behavior exposed as a clear option.

Description

performance

The problem is as follows: I moved a my feeds to Apple iCloud too save disk space on my iPad. This works flawlessly even with more the 1000 feeds. However opening the links to an external browser in my case Safari, forced Netnewswire to refresh all its feeds, marking it awkwardly slow and unusable. Question, can you implements an option to stop temporary the automatic updating of the feeds as before by implementing for example the possible time to update the feeds or stop updating the feeds when reading the in an external browser. This will make Netnewsfire usable again. So much thanks
