The Unread/Older views are live Room Flow queries filtered on
isRead = 0, so marking an article read (which only happens on
Next/Previous, not on open) makes it vanish from the list the instant
Room re-emits -- mid-scroll, or from underneath the reader's own
Previous button, which re-queries this same flow to find its
neighbors. Concretely: Next from C to D marks C read and prunes it
from the live list; Previous from D then can't find C anymore, and
jumps past it to whatever was unread before C. A misclick or the
in-flight prune could cost you the article you meant to keep reading.
Adds ArticleEntity.readAt (set whenever isRead flips true, cleared on
explicit "mark unread"); observeUnread/observeOlderUnread now match
"isRead = 0 OR readAt >= sinceFetch", where sinceFetch is
Settings.lastFetchAt -- the same durable signal the new-articles
snackbar already uses. A read article now lingers (shown dimmed via
the existing showReadState styling) until the next real fetch
actually completes, not the next DB write, and Previous/Next read from
the same still-inclusive query so stepping back to what you just read
finds it right where it was.

folder-organized feed list
- Rename app to FeeDreader with an owl launcher icon and a paywall-avoidance
note in Settings
- Move Open original/Save to Stash into the reader's overflow menu; add
Mark unread there too
- Only mark an article read when navigating away via Previous/Next, not on
open or on back
- Saved list no longer crosses out read items; its count includes them
- Back from Unread (the root screen) now opens the feed list instead of
exiting the app
- Feed list: clearer separator above the per-feed list, folder grouping
(from OPML categories) with case-insensitive sort, and a virtual "Last
fetch failed" section at the top
- Reader extraction: cap unsized decorative SVG icons (fixes Ars
Technica's giant section-badge icon), force native loading="lazy"
images to load eagerly in the hidden extraction WebView, and drop a
lightbox's duplicate caption only when a real figcaption sibling exists
- Backlog notes on swipe-to-next research, extraction test coverage, and
an async-rendered-gallery race confirmed live on Ars Technica

Reader mode was still switching kottke articles even after the v3
opt-out and the "un-hide only if thin" fallback -- both were still
heuristic (content-length-based), and kottke's posts are routinely short
by design, not paywalled, so the heuristics kept firing on ordinary
content. Removed the auto-extract-on-thin-content logic entirely: reader
mode now NEVER turns on by itself, under any condition.
- FeedEntity.readerModeDisabled -> readerModeEnabled (opt-in, default off
for every feed -- schema v4, full table rebuild since Room's migration
validation requires an exact column match and a bare ADD COLUMN left
the old column orphaned; reproduced live as a crash, "Migration didn't
properly handle: feeds").
- The reader's toggle icon now sets reader mode for the article's WHOLE
FEED, persists it immediately, and confirms via snackbar ("Reader mode
enabled/disabled for X") -- both in the reader screen and the Feeds
list's own toggle. This is the only way reader mode ever turns on.
- ReaderExtractor: replaced the "un-hide everything if thin" paywall
fallback (which is what pulled kottke's site footer into the result --
confirmed live, twice) with one that only un-hides elements whose
class/id actually names them as paywall/premium/subscriber content
(West Hawaii Today's hidden div is literally class="paywall
paywall_<id>"). This turned out not to be the kottke bug's actual cause
either -- see below -- but it's a real, independent correctness
improvement over the previous blanket version, so it stays.
- Also added: noscript-wrapped lazy-load image fallback (a common
pattern pairs a placeholder <img> with a real one inside <noscript>,
which our JS-enabled extraction WebView never parses into DOM per the
HTML spec) and lazy data-src/srcset resolution generally.
Root cause of the kottke footer bug, found by fetching and inspecting
the actual page structure rather than guessing again: it's not a
CSS-hidden-element issue at all. kottke's real post content lives in a
plain, undecorated <div class="post"> that's a sibling (not ancestor) of
an ads container and a "Socials & More" footer widget, all under one
shared <div class="grid-container">. Because kottke's posts are so
short, Readability's generic paragraph-density scoring doesn't find
enough signal in .post alone and climbs to a broader container that
happens to include the neighboring footer. No un-hide logic is involved
at any point -- this reproduces identically on the plain, unmodified
Readability pass. This is a genuine limit of heuristic content
extraction on very short-form posts, not something to keep patching with
more heuristics. Reset kottke's setting back to off (its correct
default) after testing.

reader-mode opt-out
- ReaderScreen: AndroidView's update() was reloading the WebView's HTML on
every recomposition (e.g. isSaving flipping mid-read), resetting scroll
position -- this is what made scrolling feel unsmooth. Now only reloads
when the content string actually changes.
- ReaderScreen: reader content now uses a hardcoded dark palette instead of
browser-default white, matching the app's always-dark theme.
- ArticleListScreen: mark-as-read-on-scroll -- once an article has scrolled
fully above the viewport it's marked read, the standard feed-reader
behavior, via a new batched ArticleDao.markReadBatch(). Verified against
the on-device DB (scrolled-past articles flipped to isRead=1, the
still-visible one stayed unread).
- ArticleListItem/queries: LEFT JOIN feeds for a feedTitle column, shown per
row in the Unread/Saved aggregated views and as a reader subtitle; the
per-feed article list's top bar now shows the real feed title instead of
a generic "Articles".
- FeedEntity.readerModeDisabled (schema v3, migration 2->3): per-feed
opt-out of the Readability fallback/toggle, toggled from a new icon in
FeedListScreen. Added for kottke.org specifically -- confirmed its thin
linkblog posts were making Readability extract the page footer instead
of the actual post; disabling reader mode for that feed now shows its
own (short but correct) content instead.
All verified live on the emulator against the real 107-feed dataset.

- Root cause of the reported crashes: observeUnread/observeByFeed/
observeSaved used SELECT *, pulling feedContentHtml/extractedContent
(potentially large per-article blobs) just to render a list row.
With 107 feeds worth of real articles this blows past Android's
CursorWindow/memory limits, scaling with item count -- and since
Unread is now the landing screen, it crashed at startup too. Added
an ArticleListItem projection excluding the heavy content columns;
list queries now only select what a row actually renders.
- FilterRuleEngine now takes a small Titled interface (title/feedId)
instead of the full entity, so it works with both ArticleEntity and
the new lighter projection.
- Reader-mode toggle: a button in the reader to manually switch
between feed-provided content and Readability-extracted full text,
matching Inoreader's full-text-view toggle (previously only an
automatic fallback when feed content was thin).
- Swipe between articles: ReaderScreen now wraps a HorizontalPager over
a snapshot of the current list's article-id order, so swiping moves
to the next/previous article. Snapshotted rather than live, since
marking an article read would otherwise drop it from the live Unread
query mid-swipe and shift every later page underneath the user.

- Fix OPML import status message reporting the raw pre-dedup count
(144) instead of the actual unique feed count after Room's upsert
collapses duplicates (108) -- cosmetic bug, the DB was already
correct.
- Article thumbnails: extract media:thumbnail/enclosure or the first
<img> in feed content, show via Coil in the article list.
- App now lands on Unread instead of the feed list; a top-bar icon
gets from there to the feed list (forward nav, not back-stack pop,
since Unread is now the root).
- Dark color scheme by default.
- Delete-feed action (with confirmation) on each feed row -- was
entirely missing. Deletes its non-saved articles too, so they don't
linger as orphaned rows in the cross-feed Unread view; saved articles
are kept regardless.
- Room migration 1->2 for the new imageUrl column (real migration, not
destructive fallback, since there's now real on-device subscription
data from testing).

Feed subscriptions (RSS 2.0 + Atom, hand-rolled parser), OPML
import/export, WorkManager periodic fetch with conditional GET,
Room-backed local storage (feeds/articles/filter rules), keyword
mute/highlight filtering.
Reader mode: on-device extraction via Mozilla's Readability.js
(vendored from github.com/mozilla/readability, pinned to release
0.6.0) run in a hidden WebView, for feed articles whose provided
content is too thin to be the real article body.
Save: explicit action (from a feed article, or the Android share-sheet
target for any URL) archives to Stash via POST /artifacts?sync=true,
while a local on-device copy (Readability-extracted) is always kept so
saved articles read offline regardless of Stash's reachability.
