Argh! A near 5MB image downloads when that page loads, causing me
to rapidly hit the STOP button while my internet data runs down the
drain. This is why I'm going to need to write a proxy that scales
images like that down on a remote server before passing the page
on to me (very much complicated by sites like yours that only use
HTTPS connections). Why can't people scale images down anymore?

I hear you, sorry as I mention this is still very alpha and doing it on my
free time so I did a screenshot and put it there, I have tried to crunch
a bit the image, I got it 1M smaller, not much but is something.
eventually I will like to add a small 3-4 secs video... maybe...

I'm not looking for new newsreaders, but I went looking at the web
site (now with image loading disabled) to find out what all this #
stuff is about. I didn't find any info on it, but guessing that its
purpose is for filtering articles by topics, why not use the
"Keywords:" header instead? Then the info (comma-separated) can be
used by newsreaders for sorting articles fetched with HEAD, before
they download the article BODY.
 
Or alternatively, automatically convert the # entries into
"Keywords:" entries before sending the article. Although I find it
hard to read your posts with them in the body like that.

Not sure of what you mean, most likely my lack of English, my apologies.
this client I started it for myself to replace SLRN and to get more into
rust language, specially for TUI's using ratatui
so step by step I am adding features to replace SLRN that I was not even
using 70% of slrn features, after a couple months I had people starting to
use it, so now I feel that I need to work on it more :)

is not a SLRN replacement is more like a mini-slrn if this makes sense?

Happy Hacking
