   Great help to review books

   I imported my kindle highlights, as many others. Now I daily review some highlights (thanks to a dashboard, I am motivated). And where I didn't create highlights, as I only listened to the audiobooks, I get the highlights from others. It also allows to create beautiful quotes. It adds the book cover and matches quote and background with colours found on the book title! Really nice!

• First-Gen Social Media Users Have Nowhere to Go

  I see this all the time and while at the time I thought the same there's so many good alternatives these days, even better than back then. All the interesting and small websites I want to follow still have RSS feeds so I feel like we can move on. The two I use for many years already are: - https://miniflux.app (OS, Minimal, web interface and can be used with all clients that support Fever or Google Reader API) -... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Show HN: Twine – Gorgeous open source multiplatform RSS app

  And like with most multiplatform apps, it doesn't look native at all on iOS. I prefer my current combination of: https://netnewswire.com + https://miniflux.app Both open source too. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• [Hobby Scuffles] Week of April 24, 2023

  Ive had pretty good luck finding feeds for stuff I want to subscribe to. There isn't always an explicit rss link but you'd be surprised how many blog platforms provide a /rss or /feed endpoint by default. The reader I use is pretty good at finding them if I just give it a link to the home page. Source: about 1 year ago

• Serving an RSS reader and a browser best way?

  I have miniflux https://miniflux.app/ as my rss reader. It is setup in a container and if I am outside of my home network I use tailscale to connect to the local network. Source: over 1 year ago

• Gripes with RSS after one week

  As a recent returnee to the world of RSS feeds, I’ve been enjoying the miniflux client [1] self hosted with docker-compose. Fast, cross-platform, not fancy. [1] https://miniflux.app/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• FEATURE REQUEST: Get notes without logging in

  I'm between apps at the moment! I would have used Notion except it wasn't possible to use the app on an e-ink screen. I need an app I can compose a synopsis on at the same time as export Kindle highlights to using https://readwise.io/, which narrows the options. I'm looking at Logseq at the moment.

• Pocket: It gets worse the more you use it

  Very much agree that Pocket has gotten worse as I've used it over the years. It's so bad I've mostly moved to the much better Readwise (https://readwise.io/). I'd be fully over if they actually supported a decent export (see below). It's sad because I'm probably in the 99th percentile of Pocket users in terms of usage and am happily paying them for Premium. I can't remember a significant improvement to Pocket in 2... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• What’s the best way to take notes while reading?

  I tend to read highlight and annotate using a Kindle, and subscribe to https://readwise.io/ to transfer my notes to the web. I would like to have the workflow to be able to write up summaries of books, if only for my own reference. At the moment reading my notes is like reading a book in itself. Source: 12 months ago

• How to take notes on technical books?

  Some of the things I am doing include highlighting using a Kindle, and with a subscription to https://readwise.io/ downloading those highlights to my laptop. It's possible to automatically orgnanise them into chapters and sections. Source: 12 months ago

• Looking for an app that will help me see my notes again.

  If it syncs with whatever notes app you're using Readwise might suit your needs. Source: 12 months ago
