I was interested in the NewsFlash reader, until I saw that installing the FlatPack required 3.6 GB, whereas installing Liferea required about 3 MB. I assume this is a issue rather than NewsFlash being bloated. It was funny, since an article mentioned their slimmed down code base. In related news, if people have RSS feed readers they really like using on I'm open to suggestions. Some way of syncing across devices (including Android) would be a plus.

@internic Ouch. I didn't know it was that large. I use NewsFlash (Flatpak) with FreshRSS and it's been great!

@cyberjunkie As someone else mentioned, I think it's huge because of the dependencies. So you might not need to install nearly so much stuff if you use numerous other FlatPacks, since the dependencies might already be installed for other stuff.
