I've been building an RSS reader for the past year. No unread counts, no inbox to clear. Just a river that flows at its own pace.
Today it's live on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. I wrote about everything that went into it.
@tg Looks very good, I like it. And out-of-the-box Miniflux support ❤️ I recognized that swiping left in the settings to go back to the feed seems to make the view stuttering weirdly.

@jxrxme i'd have to make it free with an in app purchase and that has /always/ felt like a bait and switch to me. I'll look into other possibilities ...
@tg If it’s only me don’t bother. But maybe others think/feel the same. And you’re right free + IAP sometimes has fishy vibes.

@tg can I feed it my OPML files from rss2email? I have lots of feeds and this is the answer to freeing my inbox :)
It is absolutely beautiful.

@tg really nice! Any plans for an android version? -

@tg FYI the app website (current.tg) linked from the Mac app doesnt seem to exist.
Also the Mac app doesn’t seem to respect the “show oldest articles first” setting.
Are you planning to add a web view by default? The app is very nice looking and I appreciate very much how you’ve thought about it, but there are pages that have to be the web page (and I have to be logged in) to read them.
Looks like a great start.

@tg This looks awesome! Quite sad that it's not available on Android, but I'm still following you for news on that. Can't wait to try it out once it is!

@tg When items fade from view, are they marked as read on the RSS service (I use Feedbin)? I’m just wondering whether something that’s disappeared because its time expired would still show in another app or not.

@kevinrenskers thank you! please let me know if there’s anything I can do to make it better for you 🫡
@tg Your homepage (https://www.terrygodier.com) doesn't link to Current on the App Store? Only at the end of a very long article (https://www.terrygodier.com/current).
Also, when I’m reading the article, I can’t go back to the homepage? There’s no navigation at all.

@tg what a beautiful article; both the writing and design. I was already curious, but the native miniflux support clinched it. Bought and about to try.
Thanks for building something new with care and love! đź–¤

@tg Looks beautiful! Nice article.
Can the local RSS be synced via iCloud like NNW? -

@tg Looks fascinating. Sadly I’m currently in a position unable to spend on the app, but will keep a close eye on it.
I wish your vision all the success.

@tg
This it what I'm looking for !
Any chance to go Android and Linux ? -
@kevinrenskers thank you! please let me know if there’s anything I can do to make it better for you 🫡
@tg Feedly sync integration would actually be rather welcome 🙏

@tg also, I keep accidentally triggering the short swipe actions but for some reason they can’t be configured with no action. That would be very welcome.
