Longform has a particularly attractive feature that restores your spot in a page when iOS terminates the app. Longform and Panda and Redef are all incredibly useful without customizing them.
If you are looking for sources check out Panda AND these lists https://redef.com/charts/sources/total http://www.aldaily.com/media http://scitechdaily.com/resources/ http://www.techmeme.com/lb http://www.mediagazer.com/lb http://www.memeorandum.com/lb https://longform.org/archive/publications https://longform.org/archive/writers
I prefer when "save for later" buttons are customizable, so you can set it to save to pocket, pinboard, feedly etc.
I also like the idea of pulling the stories from aggregators as its stuff that people is explicitly expressing interest for.
you could tell panda you just want hackernews and lobster and dribble.
if youre going to enter this space, these are the competitors you should try out.
it does sound a little bit like reinventing http://www.techmeme.com/river
I'd like to be able to select & apply different comment sort methods globally. Maybe a drop-down that applies the user-rating at top like HN does, but for the other sites' comments, too, who don't do it that way themselves. Come to think of it, it might be fun to sort the main list based on the rating of the articles' submitters, as opposed to their being based on the individual articles' score on their origin site. Like ordering the main page like HN orders comments. ...Just an idea-
(Quick preview of site, just like on safari)
I would add a "tweet" link, and a link to instapaper myself.
does your site have any sort of leaderboard http://www.memeorandum.com/lb
I’d like to get some feedback before going much further on development, this is the very minimal version of what I want it to be.
Stuff that I plan to add:
- More sources (what other sources you know that would make sense to include?) - Save for later (even though I can already save to pocket from the app, this would be nice to have) - Configurable sources - Allow hiding stories - Detection and hiding of duplicates - User accounts: allow to sync read, hidden and saved articles across platforms
What else would you like seeing in this app? :)
