Version 2.23.1
Released Aug 16, 2021 - 427.57 KBWorks with firefox 48.0 and later### New features:
- Added configurable hotkeys - functionally complete, but displayed names of actions are a mix of translations, English strings and internal action names
- Added Mozilla Readability parser to optionally load article content from website - you can set it as a default view per source and toggle view using new button above the content
- Added support for multiple enclosures - Media RSS may include links to multiple files, now all of them are loaded from feed and displayed (items parsed in the past won't automatically load additional links though)
- Now Youtube embed won't be loaded instantly, instead the cover image is displayed and gets replaced with player on click to save resources
- It is now possible to open reader view before background task finishes loading, for example you can pin the reader tab and it will work properly after browser restart

- Fixed issue causing some data to not be updated when article gets edited
- Improved display for Youtube descriptions (thanks to @akizuha for contribution)

- multiple smaller fixes that weren't tracked
### Internal changes:
