As I read through tweets in River5 I wish that it was smart enough to make shared links linkable. Right now I see a tweet and the URL as part of the same description text, to get to the link I first have to click the item in River5 to take me to Twitter and that tweet to then click the link that was shared in the tweet. Look at the screenshot below for examples of what I mean. Again, I think what lies ahead is however Dave plans to use the source name space within the items of the feed.#
Dave has released TweetFeed and I signed up to have it create my feed of Tweets. One can see other's feeds via the People menu. The solution will become more valuable when one can subscribe to a feed of any user. Other solutions like TweetFeed exist (For example nitter) but cost money to subscribe to feeds of multiple users. #
Note below that River5 displays all of the content of a Tweet (see description in the feed) as a title of an RSS item which is why each entry has a larger font and is all part of a hyperlink to the tweet. Nitter's feed copies the description in to a title that River5 renders as a title and then the description. I personally would prefer that River5 did not render descriptions as titles but instead just rendered the description or if there is no title used the pubDate for the title rather than the description. However, I suspect that Dave is heading toward a new feed reader that may replace River5 that renders the feed differently.#
