ossdatabase VS readability

looks like they typo'd, it's https://ossdatabase.com

- https://ossdatabase.com : Open source alternatives for popular software, this project itself is Open Source. (https://github.com/prithvi16/ossdatabase) and extensively uses Hotwire.

I have built and launched multiple products from ideation and design to building and marketing them. I have also worked in large and small teams. I like to take ownership of my work end to end and figure things out on my own.

https://ossdatabase.com - is a crowdsourced Open Source software database. Our goal is to make finding open source alternatives and comparing them to proprietary solutions as simple as possible.

I have also built something similar at

https://ossdatabase.com

Recently released code under AGPL-3.

But I want to go beyond aggregation and add following things

I will add your project to https://ossdatabase.com

Sure. Some links I just bookmarked and will use:

https://highbrow.se/ (Alternative search engine)

https://cora-pic.com/en (Meme generator)

https://www.mightyapp.com/ (New upcoming cloud browser)

https://ossdatabase.com/ (Database of OSS)

Hi! I am the creator of this tool. I saw people collecting Open Source alternatives on Github. Which is awesome btw, but I thought there was a better way to do this. I wanted to build a nice and clean UI and nice filters to filter projects by tech, platform, use case, and license. Following things are planned - User reviews for projects, will be screened for spam.- User-based submissions, and edits for projects. More transparency in moderation.- Karma for users based on edits. - Once I gain enough traction I plan to release the source code under MIT and the collected data in CSV files for everyone to download. - A job board for companies using Open Source tools for monetization. Alternative.to is a good tool, but it doesn't hurt to have alternatives ;). Thanks, u/zicxor for cross-posting here! source code: https://github.com/prithvi16/ossdatabase

Why not just use something like https://github.com/mozilla/readability

And not pay $0.01 per request?

There’s a node version too https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mozilla/readability

I'm working with the Mozilla's readability library https://github.com/mozilla/readability to get the "readable" text from articles and now I want to style the extracted text in a readable way.

Do you remember the Firefox Reader View? It's a feature that removes all unnecessary components like buttons, menus, images, and so on, from a website, focusing on the readable content of the page. The library powering this feature is called Readability.js, which is open source.

I wonder if Firefox "reader mode as a utility" might be a viable alternative for Pinboard like "content oriented" archiving?

https://github.com/mozilla/readability

Depending upon the type of content, one might want to look into using the Readability (Browder's reader view) to parse the webpage. It will give you all the useful info without the junk. Then you can put it in the DB as needed.

https://github.com/mozilla/readability

Btw, readability, is also available in few other languages like Kotlin:

Use Mozilla's Readability to extract that sweet, sweet text content from webpages.

Same as above but the ability to grab the entire article text (you can use the Readability library for that: https://github.com/mozilla/readability)
