At first I thought this app was a scam since pressing the icon while on a site with a feed wasn’t getting me anything. None of the menu options let you obtain the URL of the page's RSS Feed. In order to enable it you need to the following: Click on the icon > “This can read and change site data” > “when you click the extension” Now to get the URL to the feed, just right-click on the provided hyperlink and select “Copy Link Address”. Now I can paste it into my Windows-based Feed Aggregator (... Show more

Doesn't work fine. For many websites, the extention icon is colored/active, but no feed displayed when clicking on it
