Your life is cluttered. ### Why there is no categories? Why the feature X is missing? Miniflux is a minimalist software. Less is more. ### Why there is no favourites? Use the right tool for the right job. Your browser already have bookmarks, if you don't like it there many online tools for that. ### I found a bug, what next?

You can report feeds that doesn't works properly too. ### Which browser is compatible with Miniflux? Miniflux is tested with the last version of Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari. I don't use Microsoft products, then I have no idea if Miniflux works correctly with Internet Explorer.
