The fundamental goal of digester is really to consume news/updates in a more calm way. We all want to stay up to date, but constantly refreshing Twitter or being interrupted by push notifications is not how we should be spending our day.
I'm very interested in feedback -- please just comment here or you can reach me at info at (the digester domain).
If you want me to import all the accounts you follow on twitter, please let me know at the above e-mail address and I'll do that (not yet possible via the app).
If you think digester would be helpful if it had feature X, please let me know what X is.
For the curios techies: I built this all on my own using Rust in the backend and Vue in the frontend. Happy to answer questions about these picks as well :)
I’m one of the beta users, and Digester is great. Want to know the new releases of your favourite GitHub repositories without filling up your inbox? Want to get a digest of the tweets from a list of Twitter users? Want to get back to knowing new blog posts by following RSS feeds? All possible. Happy user here.
I used rocket (https://rocket.rs) mostly because at the time (Nov '19) it seemed to be the one with by far the best documentation. I think that these days, I would probably go with actix (https://github.com/actix/actix-web), because rocket does not appear to me as being actively maintained and not having async support (yet? there is a branch..) means I need workarounds to integrate with libraries that are async only.
But still, rocket is pretty great. Implementing an endpoint is as simple as a few lines and great integration with serde as well as diesel means you can integrate pretty quickly.

GitHub supports RSS feeds for repository releases. Just add ".atom" to the URL, e.g.: https://github.com/darekkay/static-marks/releases.atom
