Comment on Show HN: My all-nighter project to find the best Google Reader alternativeparent

Comments

FeedHQ seems very close to what I want, unfortunately it's throwing a 500 error when importing my subscriptions. I'll give it a more closer look later, thanks for that.

Edit: and it's open source. This definitely seems like a good base to start from if it doesn't fit my needs.

Exactly. I just don't see why dev(s) are not jumping at this opportunity. Though I saw one dev wishing luck to NewsBlur on twitter :-)

I'm not interested in making money from such a venture, I'm interested in a service I can use. If I have to write it myself though, I will. I'll be shopping for alternatives this weekend, and starting a github project if I find nothing that suits.

There's got to be some people around here doing their own that would roughly align with what I'm after. And I'm happy to pay for such a thing.

Should be a very interesting couple of months for sure.

Well, sounds nice. Do keep us posted in case you start sth. Will see if I can contribute(or use).

My reference to jumping was that I like the ideas of Pinboard and the elk and there's no reason why one for feeds wouldn't work. Work (esp well crafted and made for others to use - many ppl) requires time and effort and I find it natural for this work/job to be a paying one to be able to sustain interest and enthusiasm.
