Is this a better resource than the documentation at https://newsboat.org/releases/2.36/docs/newsboat.html?

At least, for me it was. When using newsboat for the first time, the Arch Wiki was a great help for me. IMO the Arch Wiki page is easier to understand than the official docs, it covers most use cases but I think for more niche things, the official docs are still a great resource. Maybe we should link the two wikis? Or doing this is adding unnecessary bloat?

I would say that :

  • If you want to use newsboat and don't want to go much into the details, then the Arch Wiki is great.

  • If you want to use newsboat and is interested in going much into the details, then the official docs are great.
