Not working as expected
The component doesnt load any data even though remote site and the url is added to the configuration. Please Salesforce labs could you take a look into it and resolve this issue.
Errors and Not sure how to get support
I was excited with how low-code this concept seemed, however when I add the URL to the remote access view setup and then try to add the component (with URL) to the Sales Homepage in LEX I get an error. I even tried the Google News RSS Feed incase the custom URL for the News source I was provided has it's own error. Nothing but an error "Feed is inaccessible and contact system admin" is being returned. There's no support for the app and Salesforce is unable to provide any help.
How do I get it to work on Community?
Looks like it is exactly what I want but need it on Community.
New feature request - use field for feed url
Any chance you could make an update so that you can have the option to use a field rather then URL when setting up? (the field would contain the relevant RSS feed URL). This would allow us to use a formula to create a URL that dynamically populates with the account name for example.
Extension works - Be careful with setup
1) In the component itself, you must enter the URL of your feed 2) you have to authorize the feed URL as a remote site (Setup > Security > Remote Sites Settings)
Feed not Accessible
I am getting this. Feed is not accessible. Please contact your Salesforce Administrator. What am I missing?

You have to include the url you are accessing in the setup-> remote site settings first. then try you will receive the data.
No longer working at all as of Spring '19
Tried several times with verified URLs. Followed steps exactly laid out and does not render anything just the error to "contact the administrator" as mentioned below.

and yes, I was waiting not just 45 minutes, but 24 hours to let component be visible, but still nothing.
Mixed experience
Although the component works, in some cases it gather scrambled text, and not always from the first paragraph.
Fix to add to Community
Christopher Lewis was a big help in getting the RSS Feed available as a component on the Community, thank you! For anyone else having trouble, you will need to create a Lightning Component via the Developer Console. Use the attribute (). Between the aura:component tags, the only lines you need to add are () and () minus the parenthesis. Be sure to add your RSSURL to Remote Sites as well.

Thank you for the fix. Though the feeds appears in the Community Builder preview, it does not appear in the actual community. I see this error - 'Feed is not accessible. Please contact your Salesforce Administrator.' Am I missing something? Could you help.
Yes Chrissy I too faced the same issue. By any chance did you get a solution for it?
