πŸ‘‹ Hey Product Hunt! Thanks for checking out 1Feed. I built 1Feed to solve my content consumption problems β€” I used to spend hours checking social media to stay up to date. And every time I tried to disconnect, I missed out completely on what was going on. So I embarked on a mission to build an app that would allow me to stay up to date with the topics and people I was interested in, without sucking more than a few minutes from my day. And that's 1Feed! I use it every day (for only a few minutes of course), and I love it β€” it's definitely not going anywhere any time soon, because I couldn't live without it! πŸ˜› ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Here's a bit about 1Feed and how it works: πŸ“΅ 1Feed is designed to replace whatever you currently check to stay up to date β€” your Twitter timeline, YouTube recommendations, Google news feed, or whatever else. πŸ€– Rather than use any algorithms, 1Feed only shows you what you explicitly told it to show you, and sorts everything chronologically. πŸ‘¨β€πŸŽ€ But how does 1Feed stop your feed from getting messy? 1Feed shows you a list of *people*, not *posts*. Every time a person or site you follow posts, they move to the top. 🀫 This stops your feed from being dominated by a few noisy posters, allowing you to keep up with everything you need to quickly β€” each poster takes up the same amount of space in your feed! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ πŸ“ΉπŸ”΄ Also, I'm livestreaming this launch!!! Come watch me at https://twitch.tv/ethan_the_maker.

I use 1Feed since the early days of the app and it has reduced a lot my twitter consumption. It has been a while since I was looking for an app like that and I'm really happy that @booligoosh made it! Keep up the good work.
Ethan
@louisdv Awesome, thank you so much Louis!!!

@yoni_read Thank you!!! 😁😁

Congrats on the launch. How is it different from Pocket & alike though?
Ethan
@vasgo Thanks! Interesting question, because I actually use Pocket and 1Feed in tandem together every day! I think they go really well together, and might even make a proper integration in future. The way I see it is like this: - 1Feed is for *finding* content from people/sites I want to keep an eye on - Pocket is for saving/reading that content I found So each morning I usually go on 1Feed for a few minutes, I see a few articles that I want to read, and then I share them to Pocket. Then later on, when I feel like reading stuff, I go into my Pocket and read some of the articles that I added from 1Feed. So 1Feed is for discovering the content, and then Pocket is for saving that content to read later. (btw, to add something to Pocket from 1Feed, you can just hold down on the article on mobile and then share it to the 1Feed app, or right-click on the article on desktop and then click "save link to Pocket" in your browser's context menu if you have the Pocket browser extension installed)
Ethan
@vasgo You're welcome!

to get twitter, reddit feed, you can use https://docs.rsshub.app/en or https://netnewswire.com. they are much more open than this.
Ethan
@sayomelu Yep, that's a good way to do things too! Honestly I guess they kinda cater to different audiences a bit, 1Feed is for more general users whereas self-hosted options are for more advanced users who like fiddling around with things. If you like open-source RSS readers, I also recommend https://fraidyc.at, that's another open RSS reader that is more similar to 1Feed in how it's a list of people rather than posts.
LΟ…is
@sayomelu I had a look at Rsshub.app, it's by far more time consuming to set up. There's probably solutions which support more sources or have more features, but 1Feed is by far quicker to set up and easier to use, especially for non-technical people. For example, on mobile devices you can swipe through elements of one source, which I really like from an UX standpoint.
Ethan
@sayomelu @luis_hocke Exactly! I guess it just caters to different audiences / use cases

Very interesting product! Congrats on the launch!

I just signed up to try 1Feed out. It's surprisingly easy to add feeds, especially via the browser extension. I could add most sites I tried (some independent blogs don't gave a RSS feed, then it won't work). I haven't found yet how to remove something, probably shouldn't have skipped the intro :D The monetization is well done. The free plan let's you use the product while the paid plan add's not-neccessary functionality. All in all, I really like 1Feed. Great design and UX and you can see that @booligoosh invested a lot of time. Try it out; the setup is really painfree and fast!
Ethan
@luis_hocke Thanks Luis, glad to hear the setup was nice and smooth!! To rename/move/delete/pin feeds, you can click on the edit (pen) button in the top right corner. It's not in the onboarding actually, so I might need to make that more obvious! Also need to add a way so you can get back to the onboarding to view it again lol.

@booligoosh Thanks Ethan, just found it after writing the post. Not sure how I missed it, the edit button is pretty straight forward tbh πŸ˜‚
Ethan
@luis_hocke Hahah πŸ˜‚

@blog_newforce Thanks!! 😁

1Feed is fully goated (greatest of all time). It rolls up all my news sources into one convenient feed and allows me to avoid scrolling through twitter commentary. Truly timesaving.
Ethan
@tomlister3 Hahahaha, thank you Tom!! πŸ˜πŸπŸπŸ™Œ
Aaron O'Leary
Hey @booligoosh congrats on the launch! Are there any plans to make a mobile app?
Ethan
@aaronoleary Thanks Aaron! Honestly I would, and I've been really tempted to, but the main thing keeping me away is the fact that the app stores take such a large cut of revenue, and the fact that my income is entirely dependent on the mood of some random app store reviewer deciding to block updates (lots of cases of this, but lots of those are with big organizations where they have the influence to actually get something done about it, whereas a small maker might not). So from a purely technical level, I would love to make a mobile app, but from a business/economic/political level, I've decided not to. That said, if you add 1Feed to your home screen, it does function like a native app! On Android, you can even share stuff directly to the 1Feed PWA.

Boris Chumichev
Congrats on the launch. Looks very useful! The one thing that concerns me as a user is the ability to discover new content and people to follow. Twitter and other platforms out there make an excellet job recommending new content while presenting the feed. While using 1Feed I caught myself thinking that I might miss something because I restricted myself to limited content sources. Hope this feedback helps. Good luck.
Ethan
@boris_chumichev Hey! That's actually really interesting, often I dislike Twitter because it's always recommending me random content, and I'd prefer to only see content I asked to see. I feel like often hearing about things from people online or in real life is enough for me to discover new stuff. One discovery algorithm I've really been enjoying though is Pocket's related article recommendations, those are always very relevant. Still though, I have been considering this, and I may add a more mindful (and optional) way of letting users discover content compared to Twitter etc. If I were to do this, what sort of thing would you like? Something social where users can recommend things to each other? Some kind of recommendation algorithm? A hand-curated list of interesting feeds to add? A crowdsourced list of interesting feeds to add? Just throwing some ideas out there.
