What is NetNewsWire?

NetNewsWire spent 7.1.3 rebuilding Feedly sync, and is now polishing the result.

The 7.1.3 cycle was dominated by one thing: a Feedly syncing overhaul that stopped users getting rate-limited into temporary bans, fixed a mark-as-read backlog that could grow without bound, and repaired a long list of folder and feed corruption bugs. With that shipped on Mac, the work has dropped to single-fix betas and a 7.1.4 build on iOS carrying no release notes yet.

What is Teable?

Teable's Structured Query v2 now reports across multi-hop relations, with a strict mode against SQL.

Teable ships near-daily. The October 27 release extends Structured Query v2 to same-project relational reporting across one-to-many, many-to-many and up to three-hop relations, with aggregates, grouping and permissions checked at every hop; new SQL-based query definitions now get warnings, with an optional strict mode that rejects them. The same release adds atomic record upsert on a unique field, a Table Operations console for admins, an Artifact Manager, and paginated base listing over MCP and CLI.

NetNewsWire vs Teable: editorial side-by-side

N5.0

NetNewsWire spent 7.1.3 rebuilding Feedly sync, and is now polishing the result.

◆ Current state

The 7.1.3 cycle was dominated by one thing: a Feedly syncing overhaul that stopped users getting rate-limited into temporary bans, fixed a mark-as-read backlog that could grow without bound, and repaired a long list of folder and feed corruption bugs. With that shipped on Mac, the work has dropped to single-fix betas and a 7.1.4 build on iOS carrying no release notes yet.

◆ Where it's heading

Mac and iOS move in lockstep a few days apart, each fix landing on both platforms in turn. Nothing in the window adds a feature; the entire cycle is correctness in the sync layer and the feeds list. For a reader whose value is that the unread count is right, that is the product work — but it also means the roadmap is invisible from the changelog alone.

◆ Prediction

7.1.4 looks like a small follow-up rather than a feature release, given the beta carries a single rendering fix and the iOS build ships without notes.

7.5

Teable's Structured Query v2 now reports across multi-hop relations, with a strict mode against SQL.

◆ Current state

Teable ships near-daily. The October 27 release extends Structured Query v2 to same-project relational reporting across one-to-many, many-to-many and up to three-hop relations, with aggregates, grouping and permissions checked at every hop; new SQL-based query definitions now get warnings, with an optional strict mode that rejects them. The same release adds atomic record upsert on a unique field, a Table Operations console for admins, an Artifact Manager, and paginated base listing over MCP and CLI.

◆ Where it's heading

Since the chat-first preview on October 21, each release has moved more of the product onto structured queries that agents can use safely, and away from raw SQL. Admin and integration tooling (upsert, complexity assessment, MCP pagination) is now arriving to support larger workspaces built this way.

◆ Prediction

Expect strict mode to tighten toward a default and the remaining query gaps, such as cross-project relations and sorting by to-many fields, to close next.
