Description Wonko 2010-11-22 15:07:34 UTC

Version:           1.6.5 (using KDE 4.5.3) 
OS:                Linux

Links in feeds seem to be shown as links only when they are encoded as such. Twitter for example doesn't do this in its RSS feeds, the links seem to be plain text. So I have to click at 'Complete Story' and then at the link. Or I can activate the 'Load the full website when reading articles' option, but this creates unnecessary traffic and (although small) latencies. And I like to browse fast through tweets.

Well, this behaviour is correct and intended, but it would be nice to have an option to display stuff that looks like an URL as links.

Reproducible: Always
