Amazing work there @jrmyphlmn . Very recently I was thinking about how to preserve photographs I have collected over last 10 years in my external drive and instagram and unchecked SSD cards. Time to weave them all together. Bonus for me to be the 100th github starer on your repo

> With RSS, you subscribe directly to websites, blogs, or news outlets, meaning there is no middleman algorithm deciding what you see.

This enters a failure mode very soon, especially because most people using RSS-like technologies would typically subscribe to more sources than they can typically read through. Like it or not, _the algorithm_ does serve the purpose in prioritizing and discovery. The trouble, IMO, is with the objectives for these recommendation and ranking algorithms.

A middleman/aggregator who is paid by subscribers would be incentivized for the users, a marketplace-like aggregator would always have trade-offs.

> Can’t convince someone of the former when they don’t even understand that the computer is the box attached to the monitor, not the monitor itself.

This is so true and more often than it should be. I am going to use this phrase !

Coool. I remember when the OG pebble launched but I couldn't get one for myself (it wasn't available in my region and my pocket money didn't allow for it either ;) ). Looking forward to this #bitesNailsFuriously
