@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
-
@tg And it works with Newsblur too, awesome! Purchased
@ben thank you!
-
@tg really nice! Any plans for an android version?
@centralscrutinizer not very soon, but web pretty soon!
-
@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 Thank you.
-
@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.
@_davd I'll check into this, sounds like something is redrawing

@tg iOS 18. Here’s short / full right, as an example.
@kevinrenskers that's a bug! thank you. noted and will be fixed
-
@tg I am a pro subscriber and would write them if you tell me what to ask for.
@hmelman ask them how to get in touch with them! My email is support@currentreader.app and I'd be delighted to integrate them.

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 just bought this, it's really interesting! a couple questions:
- do my settings sync between iphone and Mac? I tried setting a feed to "News" but then the setting didn't seem to carry over
- sometimes when I press "Edit Source" in the app it takes 5-10 seconds for the "edit" dialog to appear, is there any way I can speed it up?
- if i tagged a source as "news" is it normal that I see items from that source from 13 hours ago? -

@tg this seems very cool, though my RSS is about 70-80% plot-driven webcomics where I might let a pile of updates sit for weeks or months before diving in on a rainy day – I assume this isn't a great use for that? I might try splitting out all the more transient news feeds and gag-a-days into this though!

@centralscrutinizer not very soon, but web pretty soon!
@tg are you thinking of a self hostable web version? -
@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 :)
@tg as a long time user (and a one who’s been in touch with them before) I’m hoping to have some extra pull so I reached out to them. But just to add some more pressure, I’m also going to drop a mention here as well :)
@Inoreader please get in touch with Terry, there are lots of users of yours —starting with me— waiting for that support.

@tg it looks so promising, I wonder how the feeds looks if the feed contain more images and videos and less text?

@ahmetasabanci @tg Hi Ahmet! Thanks for the nudge 🙂 We’ve already replied to your ticket with instructions on how Terry can reach out to us directly. Once they do, we’ll take it from there!

Hello, remember how I've said before that they're planning trans genocide in the US? Well, a lot has been happening to move forward on that front. A *lot*.
- The head of the Heritage Foundation, who are behind Project 2025, which I may remind you was *nearly fully enacted* in 2025 despite being huge, is saying the correct thing to do about trans people to outlaw being trans. And that includes outlawing all trans health care (adults too), and considering trans people mentally unfit https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/you-outlaw-it-heritage-foundation
- Elon Musk, who continues to hold *enormous* influence over US policy, is boosting eliminationist rhetoric about trans people https://bsky.app/profile/zackbeauchamp.bsky.social/post/3mf2r237sws2j
- Annnnnnd the Justice Department issues a memo saying it's time to end all transgender care, including HRT, surgeries, but also even access to gener-appropriate clothing and affects https://www.lawdork.com/p/trump-admin-new-bop-anti-trans-prison-policyThere's more. But that's where things are going right now... and I expect more to be coming.

Reinventare la difesa del Fediverse. Affrontare il problema piĂą grande degli effetti di rete: portare le persone qui.
Ecco il problema: non siamo ancora molto bravi a sostenere le persone perché dovrebbero unirsi a noi, o ad aiutare gruppi di persone a migrare qui. Il Fediverse, purtroppo, ha una sorta di problema con Linux. L'advocacy del Fediverse assomiglia spesso all'advocacy degli utenti Linux e, oltre ad attrarre qualche entusiasmo, spesso non funziona bene.

Social Debug: di comizi virtuali, fuffaguru (e social guru) e fake digitali
Il fuffaguru-convinto è una figura che crede in quello che dice, che “non parla, slogheggia”, usa dei termini che capiscono solo loro - come il gergo che si usa in *ogni* ambiente tbh ;) - e hanno ragionamenti che fanno solo loro.

@mray Encryption is being explored by a FEP
-
Ma #TeleMonteCarlo e i suoi #giochi interattivi in #TV ?
-
@katzenberger Fair enough, I'm not arguing against that. It's just that encryption isn't easy and will take a long time. I'm using this as a 'research foil' to understand why people use Signal vs encrypted Mastodon PMs.
I totally get that people just want safety baked into everything, I'm not against that in any way. But it is very hard to do well.
-
@scottjenson Don't really need encryption just for the DM edge-case. I only need to know where/for who exactly my message will pop up automatically, though.
Suggesting "encryption" exists in mastodon, how can one make sure it is interoperable with ActivityPub AND nobody gets it wrong and falsely assumes encryption is omnipresent, when it is absolutely not.
