Omnivore - open source read-it-later solution
-
@MorganGeek I totally agree with your concerns about Omnivore. Not only those, but also is not really explained who they are, where data (for payed version) is hosted, and also they don't reply to any email (even if they show on their home page a "Call to action" like "Contact us" or similar.
About Wallabag, how will you manage highlights. Thank's a lot!
-
Yeah I confirm I couldn't not reach out to them or at least they forgot to reply
On the other hand Wallabag has so many issues open in their GitHub for many years, and some of their current features are buggy (the export sometimes takes ages, or the app crashes for memory issues), I like both apps but none is exempt of issues.For now I lack a workflow for highlighted content, I guess the best would be to save some pages as markdown in my Obsidian and highlights from there.

@MorganGeek It could be a good workaround but you evaluate see the impact on the reading flow.
Let's see how the development of Omnivore evolves and let's hope

I've been using Omnivore during the last months and it's a really well polished app. I ditched Readwise Reader, which I never quite understood at all and I was not interested in their dummy AI features.
But I would LOVE to self-host Omnivore, so today I searched this forum and found this thread
Is any of you actually self hosting it already?
PS: I just learned from you that they don't have an export-all feature (!) but the developer said on their Discord you can do it through API, as the Obsidian plugin does:
-
@chetbaker hello! As you can see, nothing new from this side: the app is still to be self-hosted on Cloudron.
I also use Readwise Reader, but it is full of lacking features, and every day it becomes more cluttered than the day before...
Also, there is the privacy concern...
We have to be patient and wait, hoping that this app will be deployed on Cloudron.
Any other solution to make it available on Cloudron? @girish

"Next, all Omnivore users will be able to export their information from the service through November 15 2024, after which all information will be deleted.
Lastly, ElevenLabs is committed to the developer community and the Omnivore codebase will remain 100% open-source for all users. This decision ensures that the broader development community can continue to build upon and improve Omnivoreβs technology."

@chetbaker Yes... totally unuseful
