It should be easier to add sources

[CrystalSplitter]

Currently, as far as I can tell, to add a new source on Fluentflame Reader, you have to:

1. Go Into Settings
2. Click the "Sources" tab
3. Add the exact feed url, and submit it

This is kinda silly for the most important user journey you can make.

I think we should have a separate modal window for "adding a source" that's very easily accessible.
The existing Settings source management I think can remain, but it should be

1. "Click here to add a source!"
2. "Paste a website link"
3. "We found 1 feed on this website, adding it now!"
4. (or if there's multiple feeds) "We found multiple feeds on this website, which do you want to add?"

Some ideas for the new placement of an "add feed" button?

Any opinions on A, B, or C? @nubesurrealista

@CrystalSplitter Hi there, I think B and C are good options 🤔

I also would love to easily copy a website link to find RSS feed automatically, even adding a YouTube channel to be updated with new videos. Feeeed on iOS does it seamlessly as it works with most websites.

Is this different than the workflow posted in the original issue filing? I cannot compare against an iOS app unfortunately, so you'll have to very carefully step through the user journey and how it differs from the above.

I don't think it's different. It follows pretty much what you wrote:

"Click here to add a source!"
"Paste a website link"
"We found 1 feed on this website, adding it now!"
(or if there's multiple feeds) "We found multiple feeds on this website, which do you want?

I just added the fact that it should be easier for YouTube links.

Ah I see. Youtube channels in particular have a trick to generate their feeds that we can hardcode, though it doesn't look like they have metadata in the page itself for this.
