I'm working on version 3.0 of my feed reader app NewsNinja: https://ainews.ninja

Version 3 will add more feed types: Podcasts, Mastodon, Twitter/X, Calendar, Reminders, Weather, Finance tickers and more.

It will have a new UI, new features like notifications and local transcripts and summaries and many quality of life improvements.

xeo84 | 1 year ago | on: Ask HN: What are you working on (August 2024)?

I'm currently working on NewsNinja[0] in my spare time, a RSS reader app that groups articles talking about the same story and optimizes reading time.

I started it a couple of months ago, I was tired of reading the same story posted across different news outlets.

Over time I added new features like summarization, the ability to hide articles that have specific words in titles, etc.

Currently working on adding custom themes and fonts for the reader mode and various customization options.

It's a fun little side project, still much to do to improve it, I'll be busy for a while!

You can send email from your alias with the Mail app, I do it every day. You need to set it up manually (not use the certificate from fastmail). After you set up the email address, go to Settings -> Password and accounts -> Tap your account -> Tap you email -> tap the "Email" field and then you can add your aliases tapping the button "Add Another Email"
