Another incoming user with a feature request...

Post by Gruntfuggly »

Hi all

I'm another new user who's found Vienna after being dumped by Google Reader - I'm guessing Vienna is going to very popular at the moment!

I was previously using NetNewsWire and one feature that was quite nice was the automatic sorting of feeds based on unread article count. Is there any chance of this appearing in Vienna?

We are currently getting a lot of requests, so the priority list largely depends on the number of people requesting something.

I find your idea interesting, but I am not sure a lot of people will use it. A few other requests are higher on my personal priorities.
An aside question : do you want the sorting to apply to folder and subfolders too ?

I hadn't really thought about sub folders, but I would guess it could apply too.

It works for me as I have more feeds subscribed than I can see comfortably on the screen, so it was always useful to have the ones with the most unread posts at the top. It would also be useful to be able to sort (or even secondary sort) based on the time/date of the last post, again to always keep the most relevant stuff at the top of the pile.

Thanks for considering the change though - it certainly won't stop me using Vienna if it's never implemented - I wish I'd migrated from NetNewsWire earlier :smile: ...
