I did a "man liferea" and noticed that you can do
--mainwindow-state=hidden to have the window hide on program startup. I
tried this on the command line and it worked fine. Then I added
"liferea --mainwindow-state=hidden" to my startup Applications. Liferea
starts up, but the main window always comes up as well.
I just want to make sure I am doing nothing wrong before I submit a bug
report. What I am trying to do is have Liferea start at launch in the
system tray, not have the window pop up.

Liferea preferences GUI tab has an option "Start in tray icon"
It works for me with "/usr/bin/liferea" in System -> Preferences ->
Startup Applications.

I did that and the window still pops up at boot time. It looks like I
may need to live with the annoyance of the window popping up every time.
