Release 0.20261027.0

When the sign in to a social account expires, Accounts page marks this account, and its popup has a button to sign in again. The refresh error opens this popup.

Promote Useful when you read 2+ Fun pages.

Home, docs, and release notes pages count visits with own Plausible without cookies. The app still has no analytics.

New Coach settings page can lock Fun at night to read more slow useful content instead of scrolling before going to bed.

Solve a math task to open each Fun page or to change the lock.

Posts show poll options and a link to vote on your Mastodon server.

Posts get language from Mastodon, Bluesky, RSS, Atom, and JSON Feed, so browser picks the right fonts, hyphenation, and screen reader voice.

Useful shows page numbers in both list and feed UIs. Fun shows back and next buttons in both UIs.

Slow Reader now can subscribe to RSS 1.0 (RDF) feeds, which are still popular on Japanese and academic websites.

Safari deletes feeds and posts after 7 days without visits. We warn about it on Welcome screen and suggest installing the app or created cloud account.

Fun posts lifetime, night lock, content warnings and sensitive media settings are now the same on all your devices.
