Some feedback and (hopfeully) construct critics from my side about the navigation with mouse in the browser.
I find the navigation between the feeds in the browser with a mouse a little bit cumbersome and time consuming.
Sure, its just a second, but often its those small amounts of time which make user experience better and smoother.
The navigation arrows for going left and right could be around the center and not on the edges.
The close [x] buttons as well, but I am not sure myself where to place them.
Similar to music player navigation, where the buttons are in one place and you do not have to go to the edges and back into the center again for scrolling.
It would be more "dense".
My recommendation would be kinda like the picture below, but not sure about the closing buttons so far, maybe you got some better idea.
Or put the closing buttons right beneath the navigation buttons and make them appear when one goes a little bit more to the sides.
If you put the buttons more to the menu at the bottom and not in the middle it would be even "more dense". But not sure if its a good idea. Maybe the vertical middle is the best place.
However, what I really would like to see is moving the navigation arrows to the center and the closing buttons somehow as well. Would be a smoother user experience in my opinion.

No, sadly I don't^^.
Using an old Laptop for most of my internet activity.
Maybe for future usage, that the layout can be adapted to users with a mouse.
It was critic on a very high level, I like the app, especially the continous upgrades :-).
