okay, i'll go first.
i am a heavy rss user. for years i used NetNewsWire on the mac. alas, the ios version started as a bad joke and only got worse. then the rss-apocalypse happened, when google reader shut down.
since then i've been using reeder on my ipad and iphone, synced with feedbin. but i'm not super happy with it, largely because the author won't get off his butt and give me a mac version already.
your app looks pretty good so far, but i don't see a sync story. will i ever be able to sync my feeds with my mac?
- kirkouimet 12y agoThanks for the feedback (and for your time to download the app and to try it out)! Here is what we are thinking: 1. Make sure people like our approach to RSS (market validation) 2. Make the web client amazing (browse.im) 3. Make an Android app 4. Make a Mac OS X app 5. Make a Windows 8 app Right now the experience is very much iPad/iPhone only. We have a prototype web reader available here: http://browse.im/browse http://browse.im/browse Being a heavy RSS user - how do you feel about the approach to RSS we have taken in the app? Do you like seeing original content and jumping from full story to full story? Any usability feedback at this point is super helpful. Thanks again!
- allenbrunson 12y agoi am finding myself a little baffled by the interaction model. i am guessing that you're not showing actual rss feeds, but are instead just loading urls into a web view? i am trying not to let my decade or so of rss experience color the experience, but it's going to take me awhile to be objective about this. how do you plan to make money? is the app just free for a limited time?
