### In Progress
2023-10-01 14:58:26 +00:00
2023-06-25 16:48:19 +00:00
### Planned
2023-12-27 05:19:20 +00:00
- [ ] Improve keyboard navigation using < kbd > J</ kbd > /< kbd > K</ kbd > .
2023-12-02 04:38:51 +00:00
- [ ] Quieten specific words
2023-12-27 05:19:20 +00:00
- Instead of "muting" words, where you don't see the news items, we instead want to quieten "words" so that
you can skim them faster, and still read it if it feels relevant.
2023-12-02 04:38:51 +00:00
- [ ] Font adjustments
2023-06-25 16:48:19 +00:00
- [ ] Check color accessibility for viewed-grey-color.
2023-06-14 05:33:57 +00:00
- [ ] **Blocked** Use upstream as canonical page if it ever becomes stable and fast
- [ ] **Stable** : Old links stop working on upstream. We break them intentionally, since this is a "daily news" site, but upstream ought not to break. See [this link ](https://app.beatrootnews.com/#article-5773 ) for eg.
- [ ] **Fast** : Current upstream is too slow. See [this report ](https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-app-beatrootnews-com/scbmz1pf5r?form_factor=mobile ).
2023-12-27 05:19:20 +00:00
- [ ] Improved onboarding that sets up the user's preferences, and mentions other features.
- [ ] Quick "highlight" feature to easily add words to your highlights.

### Wontfix
Decided against adding these features, for now.
- [ ] Custom trigger words.
- This is harder than I thought, since triggers are contextual, and simple word searches are not enough.
