New features, improvements, and fixes to CommonRSS.
Navigate your feed list with keyboard shortcuts. Press N for next feed, P for previous feed. Shift+Enter to open the selected feed. Works in the sidebar for quick feed switching without a mouse.
Highlights now appear directly in article text with visual markers. Your highlights show in amber, followed users' in blue. Click any highlight to see who made it and their comments.
Switch between showing all highlights, only yours, or hiding them entirely for distraction-free reading. Preference is saved per session.
Immersive fullscreen article view with customizable font stacks, adjustable font size, and scroll progress indicator. Press 'F' or click the fullscreen icon while reading.
Share your highlights directly to social media platforms when creating them. Connect your accounts in settings.
Delete your own highlights with a simple click. Manage your reading annotations with full control.
Custom theme-aware scrollbar styling for a more polished reading experience across all browsers.
Enter any URL and we'll find its RSS feeds. Supports YouTube, Reddit, Substack, Medium, GitHub, WordPress, and any site with standard feed links.
New organize page lets you create folders, rename them, and move feeds between folders. Access it from the folder icon in the sidebar.
Export all your data as JSON — highlights, comments, starred articles, read history, and subscriptions. Perfect for backups or importing into other tools.
Feed refreshes now use ETag and Last-Modified headers. When a feed hasn't changed, we skip downloading and parsing entirely — reducing bandwidth by 60–80%.
New articles appear automatically while you're reading. A banner shows when fresh content arrives — click to load without losing your place.
Organize your feeds into collapsible folders. Drag feeds between folders and keep your sidebar tidy.
Added comprehensive abuse reporting system with anonymization support for content takedown requests.
Import feeds from other RSS readers with real-time progress tracking. See exactly which feeds succeed or fail during import.
Connect your Feedbin account to sync subscriptions, starred articles, and read status. One-way sync keeps Feedbin as your source of truth.

New name, new identity. CommonRSS reflects our vision of a shared reading experience.

Full dark mode support with automatic theme detection and manual toggle.
