I've been working on a social link sharing site called lynmki that allows you to follow a subset of someone's interests rather than having to follow everything they post. E.g. Someone posts lovely examples of typography, and also about events on in their city but you live halfway across the globe so just want the typography.
I'm focussing on smaller circles, avoiding "algorithmic" feeds (aware sorting by reverse chronological order is an algorithm), and no advertising.
It borrows a lot from the greats like HN, Delicious, etc. and there's a long way to go (I just added likes last week) but people are already finding some nice links from it!
You can see it at https://lynkmi.com/ https://lynkmi.com/ and I'd recommend reading the about page for even more. If it sounds interesting to you please sign up to the waitlist—it's very short!
I'm also building it in public so follow along if you want: https://twitter.com/TheOisinMoran/status/1725929527761596434 https://twitter.com/TheOisinMoran/status/1725929527761596434
- webspinner 3y agoAre you going to add RSS? This would be cool!
- OisinMoran 3y agoYes it's on the roadmap for sure! Want to be able to import RSS feeds and also have an RSS feed for every tag.
- webspinner 3y agoDelicious had the feeds for every tag, I think. It's been a long time, hah. They're definitely nice to have! I have something similar with my HN searches. Although HN doesn't have tags, HNRSS makes it so you can do this.
- OisinMoran 3y agoThank you!
- canadiantim 3y agoI feel dyslexic even trying to read that domain name. I want it to say link me, but the f is lynmki edit: thank goodness the domain name actually is https://lynkmi.com/ https://lynkmi.com/, crisis averted.
- sdwr 3y agoI started on a similar link gatherer at http://sdwr.ca http://sdwr.ca #1 use right now is making looping clips from youtube videos, but I want it to function as a semi-shared way to organize bookmarks
