I’m pretty pleased with how https://www.indiepaper.io turned out, and how well the macOS app works! 🎉

@cleverdevil This looks great! Does it also have a reader view? In a sense where you can check all your saved articles? What is the post type that goes to the micropub endpoint? Sorry, didn't find the information on website. So just checking.

@amit Indiepaper will publish an ‘h-entry’ to a Micropub server with the full contents of the article. I use Indiepaper to send articles to Aperture which I then connect with my compatible reader app to read the articles I save.

@amit another way to use it would be to send articles to a Micropub server that generates an RSS or JSON feed of the content, and then use an RSS reader.

@cleverdevil hmm but then I can’t use my website’s micropub endpoint — as it will make a new post with the article. Am I missing something here?
Sending to Aperture may be something I can check. So you read them in Monocle or some other microsub reader?

@amit yeah, probably best to send to an alternate Micropub endpoint. I’ve considered adding the ability to provide categories in the publish payload so that people could publish to a special hidden category in their website. I use Together for my reader.

@cleverdevil I think you can consider sending it as a bookmark post. It can then be handled appropriately by the endpoint (possibly as a an public u-bookmark-of posts or private read later source, way I use typically).

Wow! That looks great!
