Description

1. Environment

  • Device: [Pixel 6]
  • OS: [Android 12.1]
  • APP: [0.8.3]

2. Describe the feature request

As with Feeder, I would like to be able to open the articles of certain rss feeds directly in their base application. It would be very useful because some articles are chargeable and therefore unreadable with Read You

Research direction

Start by locating the Android article-opening entry point and reading how RSS feed links are currently handled. Clarify how users identify certain feeds and what default-app behavior is expected, then verify that selected articles open in the external application while other articles retain their current behavior.
