Open-source read-later: highlights, labels, a library you can host — Instapaper's more sovereignty-native cousin. The hosted app is winding down; the code remains.
Product preview
Overview
Omnivore is Instapaper if the queue must be yours: highlights, labels, self-host. Raindrop is pretty; this is the license.
The hosted product is winding down. The product that remains is the code. If later should be sovereign, this is the library. If it should just work, Instapaper.
