- Rated 5 out of 5by IgotaBONGO, 6 years agoI'm sure my experience is not anything special, but it can't be repeated enough: THX Aurelien for compensating for Mozillas brilliant dev strategy. I guess the flat RSS code doesn't pay their bills and Pocket ( and Cliqz, and..., and...) does. Pity you had to spend your valuable time on it, and THX again you did...
#----------------------------------------------
For people searching to address their RSS needs: this addon BRINGS BACK the ability to view RSS feeds like you were used to do before Mozilla decided to remove it with version 64. It works brilliantly in 99% of all feeds I follow. Have to admit that there are some "news" sites, where you can encounter a "Error loading stylesheet" [ == .xsl ], but reviewing code that seems to be more the fault of these (dare I say?) amateurish news organizations than of this addon. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14114459, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13623245, 6 years agoA tidy replacement for the 'View RSS' feature that Firefox killed. Excellent work.
Even excellenter if it could duplicate the 'Subscribe to feed with... [external reader]".
In the meantime, I'm very impressed with the developer for making this available. My thanks. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14274527, 6 years agoNice to have something close to what Mozilla destroyed. Thanks!! Hint to Mozilla, I really want Firefox to succeed, but you're making it hard.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13107594, 6 years agoThis is a perfect substitute goods for removed default reader in FF 64.0!!!. I had looked for this simple and exellent add-on for 2 days
- Rated 5 out of 5by Hospes, 6 years agoThank you David! An efficient and essential extension for radio collectors like me!
- Rated 5 out of 5by HedgehogInTheCPP, 6 years ago"Awesome RSS" + "RSSPreview" is a great fix for Firefox 64+.
- Rated 5 out of 5by jupiter2, 6 years agoThank you, Dev! The extension is working very well so far. I wasn't sure I was ever going to find a Feed Parser just for the xml, rss, atom files I directly link to.
Most other extensions include a complete feed management solution and I wanted to avoid bloating Firefox. This extension responds to a very specific issue with FF 64+ inability to parse rss feed files directly. Great Job on this - so very timely!! - Rated 5 out of 5by GTeam, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Geo, 6 years agoThis extension does exactly what I wanted it to do. When I now click on my RSS feed it opens up seamlessly just like it did in FF version 63.0, before Mozilla removed the built in RSS reader. I am very happy with this extension. It does not add a lot of bells and whistles that I do not need or want. Thank you very much Aurelien.

- Rated 5 out of 5by chris-vecchio, 6 years agoI've been looking for a replacement for the default RSS previewer since it was removed from Firefox. Most extensions require opening a sidebar or contain features I will never use.
The author states that "This extension attempts to recreate.." the original previewer. I'm happy to report that this extension is nearly indistinguishable from the original.
I would rate it more than 5 stars if I could.
If you are looking to replicate the default reader's preview functionality, this is the add-on you need.
Thank you to the author for making it! - Rated 4 out of 5by Raphaël, 6 years agoWorks perfectly. The only thing really missing is the button to import the feed into Thunderbird that used to be there. Not sure if it's possible to implement that with WebExtensions (probably not). Anyway, good job :)
