It has some bugs, and they seem to be getting worse. For example, it doesn't time out properly, so if a feed's server doesn't respond, it gets stuck in the "Downloading" phase for hours until I get home and abort the refresh. Then after that I have to do a manual refresh or it won't download properly again. This problem seems to be happening increasingly often. Also, if I accidentally left my mouse pointer over the right hand side of the screen where the notification window appears, it doesn't disappear after popping up, even if the mouse is idle for several hours, and this blocks further downloading phases as well.
