Infinite scroll mode for viewing the articles #3301

Thank you for the great work!

I wanted to mention a small inconvenience regarding viewing the articles. Currently, on the "Inbox" page, I can only see the titles of the articles and not their content. To read an article, I have to click on it, view it, and then delete/archive it, which takes me back to the "Inbox" page.

This process becomes repetitive and time-consuming. I was wondering if it would be possible to implement a feature where we can load, for example, ten articles at a time on the "Inbox" page. Once we have read all the articles in that batch, the next set of ten articles would automatically load, similar to the "infinite scroll" feature used on many websites.

Thank you for considering this request.

Hey, yeah this is something we've thought about a bit, something like "Quick Reader" I think it would be hard to get right UX-wise but definitely something we will experiment with. If there are apps you have seen do this well let us know.

Thank you for your prompt response. I agree with you that developing a solution to display multiple articles in the same view may require a lot of extensive development efforts!

As an interim approach, I propose modifying the application workflow such that upon deleting or archiving an article, the subsequent article automatically loads rather than returning to the inbox view. Another way is that it allows people to swipe left/right between articles without leaving the page.

ah yes, I actually do have some code do the "move to next" feature after archiving. I'm hoping i can deploy it this week, there was some strange loading issues with it before.
