Brief RSS Readed not responding. Popup prompts "What should Firefox do with this file" after clicking a subscriber feed. How do I add new feeds to Brief addon?
When subscribing to a RSS feed (example: https://www.jetreports.com/blog/feed/) by clicking on an RSS Feed icon, Firefox is asking for a specific Helper Application to open the downloaded application/rss+xml file.
As Brief is a Firefox add-on, is it not available among the Helper Application list in the "Opening/You Have Chosen To Open" popup window. Nor can I hit the "Subscribe" option inside the URL address field, as this is inactive when opening the blog page. How can I add new feeds to Brief ?
My Firefox is 65.0.2 (64 bit) on Windows 10. Brief is version 2.5.9.
Really urge Mozilla to bring back the native RSS support. Ripping this feature out was a BIG mistake.
Note: Have seen "https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1250317", but do not understand how this was "solved" ...

- This is fault of this website. You have to ask the website owner, why there's no proper feed declaration in the header.
- You can workaround it, by exporting your rss list, add another feed, then import it back to Brief.
