Nice ui and idea. I've build something similar some time ago, focused on books. Each book becomes a channel that is anonymous. https://bookrepublic.app/book/Sapiens/9780…

Great addition to your services. I really want to see the pricing. Also I'm quite excited to see how this will play along with the apps concept. Do you plan also to introduce a monetisation sys…

Thank you for mentioning this. There are couple of similar patterns between the projects, but feels that hnews.xyz it's faster and has more features. Congratulations to the creator for having fun…

Just in time. I was just researching this today. Quick question ( maybe not related). Is there a good open source solution for Entity Extraction, and more exactly mapping it to Wikipedia, ( Like GOOGL…

It is on top of my todo list. One bad thing with all those readers on top of the api, is that it makes it easy to read, but does not give the opportunity to rate and by this attacks the foundation of …

Thank you for this idea. This seems like a quite friendly one. So you are using the Firebase API, and each time a website is added you add i to the Bloom filter? This seems it will work for my websit…

I guess that the server went to sleep for a while. It runs on a free heroku tier. I'm planning on moving it on Digital Ocean, but waiting for things to cool down a little :)

Thank you for the suggestion. I'm not so familiar with this. Will this work on frontend too? If I expose the secrets on the fronted, then it's pointless. Do you have some suggestions on how …

The jumping around will be addressed. See one of the suggestions in the comments. Regarding infinite scrolling, I have a personal preference for this type of navigation. I consume those on my tablet,…

Yes, thank you. The pdfs are hard to screenshot. They can consume a lot of memory on load. It's planned to have an icon or something. Right now they are ignored. Thank you for the suggestion

It's a hard one to do.I agree you can do that now. I'm thinking on a solution, but it's not really easy. Right now I have no solution.

Design can be changed. Can you tell me what would be a right proportion for you? Wider screenshot ( so higher resolution so you get more context of the page ) but less height? Actually on a retina ipa…

Thank you for the feedback. Was mentioned several times. Will be addressed in a future release. Probably a flag in the settings.

Agree with this. If you have a solution please let me know. For now I'm considering adding it as a setting.

Hehe.The bug is only for the first time. I cannot figure out why. When you are doing this second time, keeps the scroll. Actually was not a trivial issue. It's quite a hard on to do on a infinite…
