    Turn GitHub into an RSS reader

  • 3. I digest the knowledge and connect them into notes with osmos::note.

    All of them are done with plaintext (some sprinkle of markdown), remote hosted on GitHub, so they are easy to run NLP and ML against.

    In the long term, I was hoping to create a "positive feedback loop". Use ML to extract patterns from my notes, make connections for me, and recommend interesting reading in the osmos::feed. On the other end, osmos::feed can use NLP to detect how each article in the feed might connect to ideas from osmos::note and make note-taking even easier.

    The parent project (https://osmoscraft.org) is still in super early stage. Would love to let the community give it a spin while I keep iterating.

    Thanks again for the ♥

  • awesome-rss

    Awesome links related to RSS, ATOM, and Syndication formats. (by voidfiles)

  • Developer here. I super appreciate the support. Wanna provide some context:

    I'm a big fan of RSS and there is a thriving community behind. Just check out this list: https://github.com/voidfiles/awesome-rss

    I'm also a firm believer of web as a platform, a distributed document database, and an open library of knowledge, as opposed to a "compile target" for cryptic JavaScript apps that take control and freedom away from users. Jim Nielsen has a timely critique: https://blog.jim-nielsen.com/2021/web-languages-as-compile-t...

    The bigger picture behind the osmos project is to create an IDE for personal knowledge management. On the surface:

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Miniflux

    Minimalist and opinionated feed reader

  • Can I recommend you take a look at Miniflux (https://miniflux.app/)? I'm a customer and really like it - it is possible to self host.

  • feedloggr

    Collect news from your favorite RSS/Atom feeds

  • Hiya, long time lurker and so sorry but I couldn't resist to finally make a hn account and post about my little project. Apologies if I break any guidelines by advertising it in my first comment.

    Anyho, my feedloggr project (https://github.com/lmas/feedloggr) aims to solve some of these features, as it aligns with my own use case and wanted feature set. It works like a static site generator so you'll have to host it yourself somewhere though... And it doesn't have any "smart labels" so eh..

    Features:

    - Single binary and simple config (easy to run)

  • RSS-Bridge

    The RSS feed for websites missing it

  • https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge

    You can replace most of your social media feeds. I'm compiling a list of URLs you can use to replace existing services with RSS:

  • ttrss-mobile

    A mobile webapp for Tiny Tiny RSS

  • There's at least one Android reader and a mobile-optimized view available: https://github.com/mboinet/ttrss-mobile
