Bug #718286. dev-libs/stfl net-news/newsboat ``` i highly appreciate mgorny's work though. thanks to him, now i'm aware of the shortcomings, and looks like i'm now headed to get me a better rss reader. also thanks to those who helped me in this thread. highly appreciated. i'm now trying your ideas, and very optimistic i'll find a better rss reader setup.

The great > majority of feeds I read are https:// URLs. No, you're right, it does lack S.S.L. I just haven't noticed it before since all the feeds to which I subscribe are rather esoteric or old.
