Why the underscore?

Not sure why the underline/underscore of scrolling articles is there. It is distracting and rather inelegant. Now for some reason it's completely random. It is suddenly gone on one Mac and there on another. How can this be when it's the same version?

On a completely unrelated note...how come Apple hasn't created something like this for their own Apple News?

Easy to use, practical, and convenient

This app is really good. It is easy to customize with the news feeds you want. You can choose to have it always on top of your open windows or just let it run on your desktop, depending on how often you want to check the headlines. If a story interests you, a simple double click on the headline takes you right to the source. Fantastic! I use it both for news and professional RSS feeds and absolutely love it. Also, the developer answers feedback faster than anyone I’ve ever seen—really dedicated and cares about how the app works for people.

May not work on the next MacOS!

Yes, I now get warnings that this app may not work on the next OS unless the developer puts out another version. That being said, it is still pretty good, but needs improvement.

Rignt now, on this version, I am experiencing a problem getting a story to open. I click on the ticker, and many times, the ticker moves. There is no "Lock" to prevent the ticker from sliding around when you click on it, and that feature is needed badly.

Beyond that, a good app to help you discover new news feeds is direly needed, but that is not this author's fault.
