Did a post for my homescreen because it's been seven years since the last one rknight.me/blog/my-home-screen

An iPhone homescreen. It has three widgets: music, calendar, and reminders. A baby is the wallpaper.

@neilgmacy yeah it is what it is. There is a really nice one that @devondundee uses but I don’t want to pay for it 🙃

@robb Marvis looks interesting, is that the only way you use to listen to Apple Music? or just to have lastfm also in there?

@ljpuk Yeah it’s the only way I listen, you can customise the home page to have all different categories like this which I like

@robb @neilgmacy Mango Baby might be the best $10 I ever spent! The widgets and Shortcuts actions are great, and I’ve heard rumblings that an Apple Watch app is in the works.

@devondundee I might have a chat with my wife about this. It looks so much better.

@robb I believe the widget screen to the left is still called the "Today view"

@robb What are you looking for in a read-it-later app?

I'm currently writing my own web-app, as I'm not satisfied with what Instapaper, Pocket & co. has to offer.
Still a long way away from a public beta-release, but current built features are:

- extract article content
- convert text to speech
- generate podcast episodes from converted articles
- send articles to Kindle

Share a very early screenshot of the UI in this post: phpc.social/@stefanzweifel/110

@stefanzweifel that looks very interesting. I actually think I’m looking. For something more simple that what most of them offer. But I’m definitely interested in following the progress of this.

@robb It's definitely a crowded marked with very different features all around.

Took a long hiatus from working on the project, but could work on in the last few days. Time to write an update. 👀
