** Description changed: It would be nice if there were an UI to create your own (virtual) aggregator scopes straight from the Unity8 dash without any programming efforts. They would then display data from a few scopes which the user would be able to select from the ones he has installed using a layout the user would be able to define as well. Then there would be a new page in the Unity8 dash which collocates the data in the way the user wanted to. Here's a usage scenario outlining why I think this functionality is important: Let's say you read news from 4 custom news sources regularly for which scopes do exist. Currently, you then need to favorite all of them separately, resulting in the addition of 4 pages to the dash. As a result, you will have to swipe a lot to reach the scopes you want, which is quite annoying. Now imagine you need to do the same for other types of content and you will have a notion of how crowded your dash will become. To keep it short, the user experience will be suboptimal. + + + --------UX comment--------- + + This is part of a bigger redesign across different projects. The + required design for this bug is ‘paused' while we await the outcome of + ongoing discussions regarding the Scopes as apps and Scopes + customisation projects.
