For some years I have been using the QuiteRss feed reader. I am testing Akregator with some hope of migrating.
I do not want or need any related cookie storage. When I launch Akregator, $TDEHOME/share/apps/kcookiejar/cookies is created.
Can cookies be fully disabled?
Or is creating the cookie jar a coding artifact of calling tdelibs kcookiejar but Akregator does not actually store cookies? I can't find the word cookie anywhere in Akregator code but that might be a function that lies in the khtml backend rather than Akregator.
The internal browser seems broken? All of the pages opened in an Akregator tab are void of any style sheet or page formatting. Is something needed to be configured in Konqueror?
When deleting a feed from the list, the respective feeds.opml entry is deleted but the Archive mk4 is not. A bug?
Probably not a bug but an oddity. When Akregator loads the default feeds on first launch, the TDE feeds include feeds from 2010 (3.5.13 is launched)? Probably fixable if the upstream feed is updated/edited?
Thanks.

This is a side-effect of using TDEHTML. While there is no option to disable them in Akregator, you can change the cookie settings in Trinity Control Center (Internet & Network > Web Browser > Cookies > Enable Cookies). This will disable KCookieJar globally.
(Note that the 'cookies' file may still be created.)

I suspect this might be because of website using JavaScript. Akregator disables JS, so websites using it for positioning or styling elements will not render correctly in Akregator.
From my experience, websites that do not use JS for positioning/styling (such as the TDE website) will load fine in the embedded browser. Is this the case for you?
(PS, You can also configure Akregator to use an external browser.)

Sounds like it.
