We’ve just released NetNewsWire 7.0.4 for Mac. Do a Check for Updates or download it directly to get the update.
The big new changes are to iCloud syncing: there’s a new setting to not sync the content of unread articles, since that’s the biggest part of your iCloud database and what takes the longest to sync.
Another change is a new iCloud Storage Stats window that tells you exactly what’s in your iCloud storage — and it includes a Clean Up button that will trim down your storage (and lead to faster syncs in the future, though not necessarily right at first).

I’m hoping this is just April Fools

👋I’m not great at woodworking but I built a new door for my crawlspace. The old one was rotted out. I learned how to sort of use a speed square so I’m proud of myself.

 

Streaming prices are out of hand. What are cheaper alternatives?

It’s going to take a bite out of the cheaper windows laptop’s market share. Great for someone just using it for basic web browsing and wanting something without as many issues as windows has

Are there any screenshots of the app?

Easier to just drive around and find a restaurant at this point

 

NetNewsWire 7 for iOS 26 and up is available now on the App Store!
This version adopts Liquid Glass — and we think it’s a better looking version of NetNewsWire. We think even people who aren’t fans of Liquid Glass will agree with us. 🐣
Credit goes to Stuart Breckenridge for the design and implementation. Wonderful work! Check out the screenshots.
This version also fixes some small bugs and adds some small performance enhancements.

 

Jelly writes on the NetNewsWire Discourse forum:
I’ve drafted a naive implementation of NNW MCP support through AppleScript. It supports listing feeds, getting/searching articles, subscribing new feeds…
I can now schedule a daily task that lets Claude summarize that day’s new articles and order them based on my previous behaviors every morning.
We love how AppleScript support is worth way more than the effort we put into it — users can keep creating cool things that we couldn’t have imagined back then.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

The interesting thing is that from my testing with very niche code, it downright copied the only online example (my repo.) It even reused my variable names.
