CedricandClaude Opus 5.5 1048e4e384 Merge feature/source-kinds into ticket/3-fun-section (#3)
Keeps the Learning catalog from #6 and puts the Fun group after it, in the
catalog and the README. Adds the end-to-end check #4 left for Fun: a custom
Fun feed added on the Sources tab shows up in the Learn tab's Fun section,
not in Today.

CedricandClaude Opus 5.5 84cb11e4dd Hide paid Substack newsletter posts with the paid filter (#7)
Substack cuts paid-subscriber posts short in the feed and ends their
content with a "Read more" link to the post itself. PaywallService.isPaid
now recognizes that ending, so "hide paid articles" hides these posts in
Today and the Learn tab and counts them as hidden, without a page request.
Free posts that ask readers to subscribe or end with the subscribe widget
are not affected.

Tests use trimmed real items from the Interconnects and Ahead of AI feeds.

CedricandClaude Opus 5.5 8240a767ef Add the Fun section to the Learn tab with comic-friendly reader view (#3)
The Learn tab gets a Fun section below Learning with the last 3 days of
Fun articles. Fun articles stay out of Today and the Briefing. New curated
Fun sources: xkcd and The Daily WTF (on by default) and r/ProgrammerHumor
top of the day (off).

Reader view for Fun articles shows the picture whole in the body instead
of as a 16:9 banner cropped to fit, and doesn't call a comic without text
a teaser. When the page gives no picture (Reddit blocks reader view), the
feed's image is shown. The extractor now keeps an image's title text as a
caption (xkcd's last joke), images in blockquotes and behind in-page
anchors (The Daily WTF's Error'd screenshots), drops image maps and
license boxes, and on a text tie prefers the page with more blocks.

CedricandClaude Opus 5.5 f205452b25 Group the Sources tab by kind and pick a kind when adding a feed (#4)
The Sources tab shows News, Learning and Fun sections, each split by
language; kinds or languages without Sources get no header. The add-feed
dialog has a kind picker that defaults to News.
