thanks chuck. it's amazing to me someone could say something like that but that's where we are, a time when people just believe there's nothing new.
https://feedland.com/ is the place to start.
of if you want to get a quick look at what it's like using it.
that's the collection of feeds i follow.
help us get the word out.

@brentsimmons replied. Turns out he borrowed that layout for NetNewsWire in 2002 — and twenty years later, he's asking why no one's tried something different.
That conversation became an essay. I built a visual version (with an ASCII fallback).
@tg @brentsimmons Some mobile apps, like OpenVibe and Tapestry, also stitch RSS feeds into the social stream alongside Bluesky, Threads, and Mastodon posts. Also essentially the River metaphor.

@davew @cagrimmett @brentsimmons it's amazing that someone didn't know about something someone made on the internet?

@tg @brentsimmons I built a feed reader called Stream that gives you a river of news view. That’s it. No list of blogs. Just a stream of news with a detail view when you select a row. It’s iOS only at the moment but it is coming for Mac.

@tg A beautifully put together and presented essay. I have been playing with Reeders new look and Tapestry on Mac's and iOS. It feels easier on me, in that the anxiety drops off as the numbers disappear. I go back to the more familiar layout, and I lean towards the free flow…miss some…that's OK.
I'd be interested to see/test/try/learn more of what you are building.

@ctt thank you kindly for the offer! Soon!

@cptpudding I’m sorry. I need to get signed up to a special Apple program that will let me list things in the EU App Stores. 😔

@fahrni Yes, the classic EU debate. I didn’t think you’d deliberately excluded us but I liked the app idea.

@cptpudding I’ve applied to the program but Apple kicked it back to me asking for more information and I’ve been dragging my feet.

@tg love this essay (including the presentation)!
As a lover of RSS to acquire and consume news, I’m definitely interested in what you are looking to build.
I’ve been a Reeder app user for years and love the clean styling. It does seem as though @rizzi may have had similar ideas as his redesigned Reeder. omits most feed counts and even includes options to hide the single count of newer items above your position in the timeline.

@LaVi Inoltre qua dentro di "come mi va" di solito se ne fottono perché evidenti segni di malessere come le crisi di pianto sono state ignorate o represse come un inconveniente e un fastidio perché "gli altri non lavorano tranquilli".
Insomma se fosse onesta e senza nessun secondo fine sarei abbastanza stupita. Lo sai cosa diceva Andreotti sul pensar male, no? Di lui tutto si può dire, ma non che non fosse scaltro.

@LaVi Da lei sono venute svariate lamentele relative al mio comportamento, sia per motivi plausibili che per roba del tipo "fai rumore sulla scrivania con i bottoni del cappotto" (ho quasi sempre freddo e tengo su la giacca in ufficio tutto il giorno d'inverno). Altre ne sono arrivate in seguito, non apertamente, ma alle mie spalle, e mi sono state riferite dopo probabilmente mesi.
