Hey Chris — you posted about wanting a social RSS reader. A couple days later, here's what exists:
What's Working
- RSS subscriptions — any feed, auto-discovery, full-text extraction
- Highlights + comments — select text, add a note (280 chars)
- Follow friends — see their highlights in your feed
- Reactions — emoji responses to highlights
- Saved articles — star to keep
- Trending — what's being highlighted across the community
- Search — full-text across feeds and highlights
- Keyboard nav — j/k/o/s, vim-style
If You Like It
- Permanent archive — articles you interact with get preserved forever
- Notifications — when friends highlight, when someone reacts
- Reading groups — private circles for sharing
- OPML import/export — bring your feeds, take them with you
- Weekly digest — email summary of friend activity
- Public API — pipe highlights to Notion, Obsidian, wherever
Next.js 15, React 19, Neon Postgres, Clerk, Vercel. Built fast, works now.
