Fewer Features in the Aggregator
Some of the changes I’m not too crazy about in this new version of Manila are to the aggregator. The links to the source, a way to isolate that source in the aggregator, and sometimes permalinks and comment links are all gone. Many times, when I find something I want to blog about in my aggregator, I’ll go to the real source before writing. Since things can disappear, get edited, etc., it’s just wise to do that. Now, it takes me longer to get there because I have to find the source, then find the content on my own instead of just following a link from the aggregator.
It’s difficult to know whether those changes to the aggregator are intentional (though why someone wouldn’t want a link to the source in an aggregator is beyond me) or just another bug. I was secretly hoping the missing links were a browser issue, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
