Grabbing the full article whenever possible
Implement an article grabber, that tries to get the full article, even when the feed itself only provides a short summary.
+PeterA pointed me to picofeed, a php feedreader that already implemented such a article grabber. They also have a big collection of custom rules for specific sites.
So rewriting the grabber-code of picofeed in vala for FeedReader would be a good idea imo.

Maybe using Readibility API could be possible, but the platform is not open-source, even though the original version was.

I was thinking about this "sending articles to..." feature anyways. So maybe I'll use the api for the grabber, too. But only optionally. I don't want to force people to use this service.
