Not super fan of this hiding basic settings behind a future paid subscription:
Since it does RSS I'd like to be able to import an opml of my feeds like any other aggregator does.
I like the idea but not super impressed so far.
I'm always torn about what kinds of features should be put behind a paywall. Like, if it's just little customizations, that's much better than saying, "pay us a monthly fee to make more people see your posts." It seems silly to make UI customization a pro feature, but that also seems like a non-evil way of monetizing a social media app.
