I've been building an RSS reader for the past year.

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 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.

@tg I was going to ask why Inoreader wasn’t on the supported list but I’m guessing this is the reason. Any way we can help or use a workaround?

@ahmetasabanci if you have any sort of pull with them, it would be great if we can get in touch with each other. I can't figure out how to get them to respond to my emails :)

@kevinrenskers they /should/ be able to be configured for no swipe. I'll take a look into that. which platform are you on?
-

@kevinrenskers they won't respond to my emails and appear to want an enterprise plan to allow customers to use their content. if you can get their attention I'm glad to chat!

@itsmistermoon thank you!

@tg iOS 18. Here’s short / full right, as an example.
-
@tg Looks beautiful! Nice article.
Can the local RSS be synced via iCloud like NNW? -

@tg yeah it seems they changed the focus of the company. Unread (my old rss reader) does have Feedly, but I guess it’s time to move on from them. (Them being Feedly)
-
@tg Current looks great, does it support Feedly?
@hmelman not at this time, they won't respond to my emails and appear to want a kings ransom for an enterprise plan....
-
@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! 🖤
@brainsik thank you for reading!
-
@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.
@kevinrenskers it's brand new! I'll work on it a little :)

@tg I am a pro subscriber and would write them if you tell me what to ask for.
-
@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.
-
@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!
@tuxsec thank you :)
-
@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.
@wyldphyre fixed! should be available very soon from apple
