Open Source

Project Link: https://github.com/openbin/smartnews

Usage :

Click a feed or feed folder in Feedly
Click the downward arrow on the top right of your feeds. It'll take a second or two to load likes/shares for all the articles and sort them in descending order.
Make sure you change layout to "Titles" from the cogwheel. It can be permanently set under "Preference > Default View" at the bottom of the left side navigation pane.
Additionally, next to each feed, there's a red upward/downward arrow. You can hit that to 'mark as read' all feeds above/below respectively.
When you click on a new feed, it automatically gets the unread count unless you have manually altered the number of feeds to sort.
Update : If sorting is not correct or articles are mixed up from previous feed, reload that particular feed.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Smartnews requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

Smartnews may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
