Omnivore - open source read-it-later solution

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

@p44 last we checked, there were many holes in the selfhosting solution. It's not entirely selfhostable yet. See https://github.com/omnivore-app/omnivore/issues/25

[p44]

@girish so, maybe that they advertise "self hosted mode" only for "self(host)i(e)sh" purposes? who knows....

[p44]

@girish Do you think it could be a good idea to write to developers to address all the necessary fixes and demonstrate the ability to be hosted on Cloudron? This could potentially benefit their growth and expand their user base...

[girish]

@p44 there's quite a bit of work to be done on the selfhosting front (for them). They rely on many cloud services.

[p44]

@girish
Let's see how the project evolves.

It will be interesting to follow future developments and see if they manage to make the platform more independent from third-party cloud services, improving self-hosting capabilities...

"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 Omnivore’s technology."

Oh boy. I just find Wallabag having such an ugly UX

@hpz24 Project gone, bye bye Omnivore

[p44]

@chetbaker Yes... totally unuseful

We'll see, since

So, we could have an eye on it and let's see what the community is willing to do with the codebase.
That could be an opportunity to become a great open source alternative.

Hello folks, I just checked the repo but it doesn't seem to me there are any advances? I'm app less and I don't think Readwise Reader worth what it cost...

[chetbaker]

BTW, I've been trying Readeck and it's pretty smooth. The closest I've found to a nice self hosted read-it-later app around
