Vision behind alligator?

Alligator

KDE PIM comes with akregator as a feed reader. It is pretty unyielding and convoluted to use and too intrusive in appearance for a feed reader. Several threads in this subreddit also suggest that it is abandoned and unmaintained. There is a simpler kirigami-based alternative called alligator. I've built it from AUR and it feels better to use, but lacks * a global menu * sync on startup * marking all articles in a feed as read * enclosures in feed articles * a good hamburger menu * changing feed order, preferably via drag-&-drop * importing from akregator (kmail can import from thunderbird btw) * and many more features.
