Great tips from great Jason Evangelho ! :) I have been listening to your Linux4Everyone podcast for a few years now and have been able to make Linux my daily driver now. I started using Thunderbird today and even added a few RSS feeds, thank you for making these great videos ! I was getting annoyed with ads in the RSS news feeds but after watching this video, was able to install uBOLite extension and all annoying adstuff gone. Glad to see you helping Free Software community, keep up the great work !

Is there a way to collect all RSS feed into a single view? Just like with the unified email inbox when using the grouped folders view. Because sometimes it is hard to find the one updated rss feed when you have a big list of them.

Plasma is this guy's daily driver (Kubuntu 22.04)! Regarding Akregator, you can always export your feeds to an OPML file and import that into Thunderbird. Try it out? It doesn't have the polish of other dedicated RSS software, but there's something nice and comfortable about using it the same way you do email. Thanks for the comment!

Been enjoying setting up RSS feeds. Question for you. I have some feeds that have subscriptions, is there a way to pass through the login information? When I click the login in to get the full article, it jumps to the browser to login but logging in there doesn't seem to affect the RSS feed in Thunderbird. Still getting the login pop-up. And Ublocker doesn't block the login pop-up

Elephant in the room? ALL THE TABS it opens when you read your email or pretty much do anything. My customers don't understand why they can't easily see their inbox after reading or sending an email, like in Outlook. I have to show them Thunderbird is just Firefox with bells on and they're just going to have to live with multiple browser tabs whenever they do anything.

Just came across this tutorial and thought, 'fantastic, just what I need'. Followed the instructions and after a couple of hiccups I have now got a couple of You Tube feeds in my 'Blogs & Feeds' menu. However, if I click on any video to play it, it just hangs with a spinning wheel of death. The videos play normally in You Tube directly. I use Vivaldi browser (Chromium) and of course Thunderbird email client. Any idea why they will not play?

@thunderbirdproject 3 күн бұрын

I suspect this may be related to the somewhat recent difficulties Firefox is having with KZfaq streaming. I checked some of my own KZfaq feeds and they're playing fine, however (Thunderbird 115). This is going to be tough to troubleshoot here. Maybe try starting Thunderbird in Troubleshoot Mode, or disabling uBlock Origin if you have that add-on installed.

Q: can rss messages be moved / collated into a folder using filter rules (similar to making lust content) or are they more like a news group? it might be more useful when you have an eclectic selection of vstis contents and want to have them grouped by topics / platforms. Edits: I wrote the original question on mobile using Samsung Swype, and it has this nasty habit of replacing words. I honestly do not remember what word I used for content and vstis. I guess the question was does it act more like POP (where we are allowed to move mails) or IMAP (which always syncs to the server, so removing posts is not possible, just like on a NG).

@thunderbirdproject Жыл бұрын

Going to assume "lust content" was a typo 😅 but it's an excellent question. The short answer is "YES!" You can use both Saved Searches and Message Filters on RSS feeds, because Thunderbird treats them just like folders and emails. Currently, all of my personal RSS subscriptions are organized into subfolders (Music/Tech/KZfaq/Linux/etc). The drawback to this is that you can't view an aggregated list of all the folder's feeds by clicking on the folder. So what I've done is a File > New > Saved Search to aggregate any mention of (as one example) "Foo Fighters" into a dedicated, constantly updating folder with those matching articles. We're planning to a couple short "advanced" tutorials on managing RSS feeds, so please stay tuned for those.

@realraven2000 Жыл бұрын

@@thunderbirdproject Another way might be: 1. create a filter in the original feeds folder(s) 2. copy the rss feed while setting the original to "read". (3) bonus tip: use quickFilters custom templates to create new filters in 3 clicks. I am always a bit sceptical about search folders, which are only as good as your last database update / repair folders action.

Hey there - sorry for the mixup in the previous reply. Go to Thunderbird Menu > Account Settings > Synchronization and Storage. You can disable local storage by unchecking Message Synchronization. Be sure to see the warning regarding deleting messages, as it will also delete originals.

@nounix 7 ай бұрын

Thanks for your reply! You are saying that if I uncheck “message synchronization“ that this will stop Thunderbird from storing anything on my hard disk, right? So any incoming or outgoing or draft or deleted emails will remain on my Gmail/Yahoo/Hotmail email accounts, they just will not be stored on mine, hard disk. Correct? I’m asking again because “message synchronization”, that you say that I need to uncheck, sounds like me telling Thunderbird not to “synchronize” with my emails on my mobile account, meaning not to go fetch new ones. That’s not what this means, correct? What do I need to uncheck to make sure that no “originals“ as you say will not be deleted? I assume you mean that they could be deleted from my Gmail account via Thunderbird. Or did I understand wrongly?

@@thunderbirdproject OK, it looks like adding the Awesome RSS add-on for Firefox was the missing ingredient. After adding that, Get RSS Feed URL extension works!

The part about adding Ublock was really unclear. I watched it 48,000 times in slo-mo, and the link does not go where you say it does. The git hub page has two choices, a zip and a tar.gz. The tar.gz is seemingly invisible, the zip produces an error message saying it is corrupted. Also, your cursor kind of wanders around as you say just download it, etc. It works like magic for you, but I could make neither head nor tail of it, and either something slower or more explicit is what a low-IQ normie like me needs, I'm afraid.
