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

[tg@indieweb.social]

@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 ...

[dtm@mastodon.cc]

@tg I have to say that looks pretty cool. Good concept.

[tg@indieweb.social]

@dtm thank you!

[mpmilestogo@cupoftea.social]

@tg Very nice! Thanks for this. Using it on my iPhone 13 and MacBook Air M1. Very calming and no numbers. I like that!

[tg@indieweb.social]

@mpmilestogo me too!

[pleonastictautology@shrike.club]

@tg Hi, I have a question: Does this also work as a podcatcher?

[tg@indieweb.social]

@pleonasticTautology no! not in the way you would want. But … another app for that with same philosophy … soon.

[pleonastictautology@shrike.club]

@tg oh, sweet! we've been having problems trying to find a good podcatcher for us, especially one that's on, y'know, everything.

a note for that: i do love seeing show notes (i listen to friends at the table, an actual play that writes connected fiction in the show notes frequently), so sort of option to surface them easily/by default would be neat :3

[tg@indieweb.social]

@pleonasticTautology I got you!

[kevinrenskers@hachyderm.io]

@tg beautiful website! And simply a fixed price up front? Sold!

[tg@indieweb.social]

@kevinrenskers thank you! please let me know if there’s anything I can do to make it better for you 🫡

[acdha@code4lib.social]

@tg thank you for @newsblur sync support!

[tg@indieweb.social]

@acdha @newsblur of course! They didn’t try to charge me thousands of $$ per month to let people access their content like 2 other large feed services.

[acdha@code4lib.social]

@tg @newsblur that is unsurprising on both counts, sadly in the latter case.

[tg@indieweb.social]

@acdha @newsblur I was surprised because they are available in so many other apps that got grandfathered in.

[newsblur@mastodon.social]

@tg @acdha that’s wild! Though users must be premium to use the api with a third party reader, so that’s a restriction, but I wonder what the business case is for high fees on the api.

[tg@indieweb.social]

@newsblur @acdha you wouldn’t believe what I’ve been through here with dozens of emails. Feel free to dm. Newsblur literally one of the best to ever do it. So much respect.

[tg@indieweb.social]

@newsblur @acdha they literally won’t mint me a key, as app publisher to use, or test, without committing to $x,xxx per month.

[tg@indieweb.social]

@newsblur @acdha you can probably figure out who I’m talking about based on who is supported in the app. I’m aware of who folks use :)

[jac@social.lol]

@tg It looks beautiful! I’m excited to try it, hopefully soon.
