Toot

Now that #omnivore is dead and folks struggle to selfhost it, I should probably polish my own read-it-later app and make it open source?

Written in PHP makes it simple to host. All the advanced features like text-to-speech or content-extraction are driver based and not tied to a specific cloud.

If you don't like GCP, just provide AWS credentials and use that text-to-speech API.

But do I really want all that maintenance burden? 😅

Support highlights and iOS apps?

@stefanzweifel If it has an API you don’t really need an iOS app, shortcuts can handle it.

@robb True. I plan to add a REST-API for everything the app can do. So technically others could build native apps, if they want one.

@stefanzweifel Been wanting to open-source my own feed reader (until I effectively stopped using it ☹️).

Now investigating merging it into my (already open-source) CMS.

Despite it being a feed reader first and foremost, it supported having individual (i.e., non-feed) pages added to it for reading at a later time, via Micropub requests (an idea I stole from @aaronpk’s Aperture feed aggregator).
