F-Droid

Feature or improvement you want

I want to be able to further filter RSS source into sub groups or folders.

There are two ways to solve this. Either add sub directory function and call it a day.
Or have labels or tags like: high factual, low factual or left or right wing. In that way we can have intermixing of news sources of different categories inside the same main folder or group while not manually inputting too much categories

Why should this be added?

I have many groups in the feeder app. One of the groups I use is News as my news source. Now the difficulty arises when high factuality news sources gets mixed up with low quality fringe sources. That's why I wanna be able to filter out on the basis of bias, factuality and political spectrum. I'm giving some examples

  • I wanna separate the left and right wing sources to better visualize the report along the spectrum
  • I can separate factuality from highly factual to low factual
  • Let's take the Ukraine war for example. I can filter out the pro Ukraine sources and pro Russian sources and have a holistic sources

Doing all these will require many groups with the current setup and would be hard to keep track. But if labels or tags are used. The news sources can be intermixed in different categories.

This is a highly desirable feature. I like to sub-categorize my news feeds by country - City . In parallel also as economy, politics, tech.
