Loved Google Reader and this a intresting project! Moved to Inoreader after Google Reader shut down. It can be customised to be pretty much identical to how Google Reader looked and functioned.
Awesomeness ⭐ Very cool project. I think we could even do away with a bit of the repetitions in the crazy formulas as variables in the LET statement are defined in the order they appear in the formula. So one of the first variables could hold the repeated IMPORTFEED activity to get called in the following statements.
Thank you 🙏 Yes, I love your thinking. I tried to get the IMPORTFEED into the LET, but each IMPORTFEED calls a different specific metric, so they are in fact all different calls. I would have preferred to get the data with a single IMPORTFEED and separate it after, but I needed them separately for the LAMBDA. However, I'm sure there's a way to set it up with a single IMPORTFEED in the LET and shorten it!
Oh, of course. And it can't be shortened with a Named Function as they don't really play nice with IMPORT functions. Bugger. (Apologies, seems I wrote previous comment from a weird old UA-cam channel of mine)
this is great! thank you so much for your video. Question - what's the frequency it refreshes with new information and how can I keep the old information? or will it disappear when it refreshes? thanks!
Thanks for this, I have fond memories of the Google RSS reader. 👍
Indeed! I think many of us do 😥

Very cool. I use Feedly now myself, but I do miss the look and feel of the original Reader.
@@benlcollins I did use Feedly for a while initially but never liked the look and feel. Worth exporting into Inoreader to give a go.

Great tutorial! Is there a way to include a thumbnail image or image URL? Thanks!
Amazing! Is it possible in Sheets to import >200 feeds and apply filters to show only dozen of news?
