Hey Fayner! Nice to meet ya, I have signed up to Hutch, I think I might be one of the first 100 users so are you suggesting that I might have the product free forever or till a certain time?

I used to use Shiori until I one day had accidentally removed that docker container, nowadays, I either star if its a github project or I even had a tampermonkey script which created a button in my screen which I can click to store links in json format in a private secret gist of mine. Personally I really like shiori and I have talked to their developers on matrix too and they seem nice, I would love to hear your thoughts on Shiori.
> This is a genuine v1 — the advertised features work, everything else is roadmap. What I want to build next: a preference learning layer ("more like this / less like this"), Gmail integration for newsletters, and highlights. I don't know which matters most to the people who need this.
Personally, I would love if there was a thing similar to linkhut (you can see my linkhut at https://ln.ht/~imafh https://ln.ht/~imafh), this is a place where I share all the really cool things that I found on the internet and the best part absolutely about linkhut is that I can write "notes"/"text" within Linkhut about a particular link)
So anyone, who is reading my profile can exactly know why I vouched for a project. Combining this with tags and videos and search and profiles with it being open source/with api, I Really Love linkhut but (its link aggregators features are a little not so good)
I am not sure of how similar linkhut and hutch can be, but I would really love to see a feature for example where I can get suggested an article by other people who have written some genuine things about it in notes and then I can comment about it within maybe hutch itself even, or if not.
I feel like having these human elements gives a sense of community. I would love to hear your thoughts on as well!
- fagnerbrack 6mo agoHello! Notes and highlights are on the roadmap — you'll be able to annotate as you read. The social discovery angle is interesting. Hutch is deliberately private for now but curated recommendations from real readers with genuine notes is a different thing from algorithmic suggestions. Worth thinking about. On the free tier: the first 100 users get free access, no time limit. I haven't tried Shiori, I'll take a look. Welcome to Hutch!
- Imustaskforhelp 6mo ago> Worth thinking about. Thanks, I have been thinking about it from a more human perspective as in that I have some cool things to share to people and those don't fall exactly into Hackernews at times (suppose a struggling musician who has an interesting story to tell), Usually I then use linkhut with their channels with a note so that people can know why I have bookmarked them in linkhut if they go to my profile and see my linkhut there. Its definitely really interesting to think about. > Welcome to Hutch! Thanks! Happy to be a user here!
- fagnerbrack 6mo agoThank you! Feel free to send an email at any time hutch@hutch-app.com if you have any other suggestions/feedback :)
