Limited Feed Snapshot

I don't know if this is in any way within the intended scope of the project, but I'll just ask:

Would you consider a sort of Anti-addiction setting? It could for example work like this:

• A set number of posts, say 100, is loaded from all subscribed subreddits in the order it would have normally been loaded. There is no 'Load more posts'.
• This data is kept and not refreshed - the feed stays exactly the same. Even the UI interaction of refreshing isn't available.
• Only every 24 hours - or whenever RedReader hasn't been opened for 10 hours - the content is refreshed and a new feed is generated
• This setting cannot be turned off from within the app once activated - one would have to reinstall / clear user data

This would still allow the user to visit specific subs, go on deep dives etc., but the psychological effect of knowing there will be no new posts in your feed until tomorrow, no matter how much you refresh and scroll, might be quite significant.

Thank you for considering!

Thanks for the suggestion! I think it's a good idea and I'd accept a PR for this if someone submitted it. The "only refresh every 24 hours" feature could be challenging and I guess it would need to work on a per-subreddit basis.
