I just checked, I tagged the very first version of blindRSS, before I was using git for it, on January 18 2008. That's close to NINETEEN years ago.

And I still use it every single day.

@eigenstil Not right now, there's no installation script right now and the database layout changed a lot since blindRSS 1.2. I hope to have a release within the next two weeks, though! You can follow the project on codeberg: https://codeberg.org/blindcoder/blindRSS

I got my SignPath approved for BlindRSS. I regret acting like anyone can vibe code after dealing with this process. Glad I didn't have the impact I was going for on that one, that's for sure. Is official Microsoft signing like this too? Needlessly complicated IMPO

I updated blindRSs, now you can search for rss feeds more broadly and I've tested the updater myself now, so I know it works. https://github.com/serrebi/BlindRSS/releases

Some low level type fixes in todays blindRSS update. Like for instance you should be able to read full text while playing a podcast without anoying high CPU use. Enjoy the release! https://github.com/serrebi/BlindRSS/releases/tag/v1.57.0

Boosted from @amir@dragonscave.space:
@pixelate@tweesecake.social Guess I'm one of those. I like an RSS/ podcast app written by a blind user/ dev better than anything else on Windows. And, of course, it's not just subjectivity. The app in question, BlindRSS…

Erst Feature-Parity erreichen oder jetzt gleich das Chaos im Quellcode aufraeumen? 🤔

I don't know why someone wanted constant notifications for new articles, but now it's possible if you want, and go turn the feature on. You can also add shortcuts, and add blindRSS to startup with windows, if that's a thing you want to do.

After adding windows notifications support recently, I broke chapters. So I fixed it. I don't know why someone wanted constant notifications for new articles, but now it's possible if you want, and go turn the feature on. You can also add shortcuts, and add blindRSS to startup with windows, if […]

* BlindRSS: A screen-reader-friendly RSS, podcast, and media client for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It handles RSS and Atom feeds, podcasts, full-text articles, YouTube, Reddit and other discussion sources, feed discovery, filtering, casting, and more.

Don't want the feature myself, but it doesn't take away from the app, so why not add it? https://github.com/serrebi/BlindRSS/releases/latest

Found that recent changes broke chapters support in BlindRSS: Downside of vibing. I want to start a simple project, to learn about code/read my generated code, so I can do some of the work myself. Can't start by reading blind RSS sourceCode

Yay, no new builds for a little while now with blindRSS, now that I got skip silence working properly. It's still experimental, but you won't go as crazy using it now.

Fixed stupid repetative on resume bug in BlindRSS today.

Released a new blindRSS release, https://github.com/serrebi/BlindRSS/releases/tag/v1.48.17 that improves chapters support thanks to Michał Dziwisz @midzi

New blindRSS, with new Unread, and read sections. https://github.com/serrebi/BlindRSS/releases/tag/v1.4

I made my own RSS reader for myself. Check it out!

Really starting to prefer Gemini, but even it is not perfect, and I had to send it the public API link not the GitHub for TheOldReaderAPI working URL. I don't know for sure that had anything to do with it […]
