    @thetomester13 how about enabling https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge/wiki/Authentication#rss-bridge-authentication instead? I prefer using upstream auth when available and leave it to the user if they want auth or not. Generally speak, you don't want to throw around Cloudron username/password inside apps (for example, inside your rss reader/aggregator).

    @girish that's a great idea! I like the proxyAuth because it limits the number of credentials one needs to access their apps, but you're right in the way that it ends being less secure since you might end up using it in other places that might not be as secure.

    I'll play around with the built-in auth!

      @girish just added some authentication to the package in an easy-to-use config file that can be updated via the File Manager. Again the repo is here for anyone to play around with.

      Is there any interest in creating tests for this and to eventually deploy to the Cloudron App Store?

          @thetomester13 awesome, if it's useful, I don't see why not have it published. Does it work well?

            @girish I've been using a Twitter feed with it with no hiccups at all! Haven't worked with many of the other 'bridges' but I'm assuming they should work well. I'll get some tests going soon and update this thread when they're ready!

              @girish just pushed up some tests to the repo here. It currently simply checks for a simple JSON URL of a Twitter feed - I feel like that's enough to prove that the app is up and running, but open to adding a few others if you think it'll be beneficial. Only thing to note is that the update test needs to be updated when a version does get onto the App Store.

              Let me know if you're able to push this through!

                @thetomester13 thanks you so much! excellent work, the tests worked just like that as well. I moved the repo to https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/rss-bridge-app, you should already have permissions.

                It's also published as unstable now.

                      @robi The link you posted is for someone who has implemented it on their end, but it isn't yet merged into the master branch. We should wait until this PR gets merged in, and when that's done and a new release is shipped we can update the Cloudron package to pull it in.

                      In the meantime, if you really want dark mode, you can download a browser extension to apply custom styles on certain domains. I like Stylus (Firefox), and then you can copy the CSS linked to from the issue you shared to display on your RSS Bridge instance.

                      Hope that makes sense!

                        @thetomester13 nice you found the PR.

                        Did you see the comment that modified the CSS to grab the system preference?

                          @robi yeah, that's part of the PR so that when the code is merged in, RSS Bridge will automatically change mode to what the OS is.

                            Was just able to merge in a PR that adds an 'Install on Cloudron' button on RSS Bridge's Github!
