White page instead of article list
Many thanks for providing the excellent ttrss-reader :+1:
After the upgrade to 1.96.1 the list of article gets downloaded, but when I select a feed, instead of a list of articles, I get an entirely white page with no content at all.
Here is the logcat entry:

Any hint or advice is welcome, if I do something wrong.

Where did you install from? I can't see anything wrong with the logs, there should be something on the screen. Is this still an issue?
I still see the issue.
I installed from f-droid on a Google Pixel.
Here is a screenshot
https://nc.d5x.de/s/qmZ24KnXCWtXc2t
Can you try disabling the setting "Preferences -> Display -> Enable Tablet-Layout"? I suspect this might be an issue with especially big screens.
I disabled it, but I did not see any effect (which is in line with the description, my screen is clearly smaller than 7").
What I should mention: The overview (=list of RSS feeds and unread articles) displays correctly. Just the list of articles in a news feed is always empty.
I also have problem with newer versions. Version 1.95.7 works fine for me. I get them from Fdroid and I have a Pixel 3a with GrapheneOS. Just tested version 1.96.3, it gives me just a black screen with the logo in the middle, earlier versions gave just a white screen.
I just installed 1.96.3 from fdroid. After trying a few things, I found that I activated "show only cached arcticles". This was hard to spot for me, because when activated, it shows only a menu entry "show all articles". I did not realize that there is another way to filter articles beside "show only unread articles". I have to admit, I do not even understand how this function works exactly.
It would have helped me, if a message that only cached articles are displayed would have been shown more prominently.
I see, that woul dexplain the empty list. Don't really have a good idea where to put that info or how to rename the menu-entry to resolve this. Would a short alert be appropriate, flashing the message "No articles selected, only showing cached articles" or something like that?
What this function does: It only shows the already downloaded articles when using "ImageCache".
I am still not entirely sure what the feature is used for, therefore I cannot come up with a proposal for a menu entry. Is "ImageCache" another app or a feature of this app?
Adding a checkbox on "Display only cached articles" would be an option, but not sure if Android style guide consider this poor design, since it is harder to touch than a full menu entry.
Assuming that people using this feature frequently want to disable it again to see new information, would a pop-up at startup work
Display only cached articles?
Yes/No
?
Thanks Rainer
