NextCloud RSS News app

I have been using Tiny Tiny RSS on my fbox server and I have to say it is an excellent way to keep track of the online world.

I have set up NextCloud and enabled the News app so it comes up on the web browser display. I have been able to use it to follow some blogs using the cards if offers to subscribe, but the left side of the screen is not rendering properly, it is a jumble. I see the same from different browsers on different computers. It means there is no way to navigate amongst the subscribed feeds using the browser.

The Netcloud android News app seems to work perfectly. The feeds I have managed to follow in the browser, turn up in the phone app.

I did an opml export of the feeds I follow in tt rs and tried to import it into NextCloud. When I am logged in as a user there does not seem to be a way to import the opml file. When I log in as admin it offers that option but when I select the file to upload it, it responds with an error saying the file does not contain valid JSON.

I can’t find any setting related to News that seems likely to be causing the jumbled up left side of the screen.

This is probably something I have messed up somewhere in setting this up. Any ideas what that might be?

I hope this is an appropriate sort of question for this forum.
