Uncited
I built a a specialized RSS reader for researchers. It aggregates papers from 3000+ journals (Nature, Science, arXiv, etc.) into a clean, unified feed. It's in beta. I found it difficult to keep up with the flood of new papers across different journals and arXiv categories. Existing RSS readers felt clunky for this specific use case, and I wanted something faster and more focused (more than Twitter/Bluesky) Let me know what you think!
In plain words
Uncited is an RSS reader designed for researchers who need to monitor academic literature. It aggregates papers from over 3000 journals including Nature, Science, and arXiv into a single, streamlined feed. The tool addresses the challenge of tracking new publications across multiple sources and categories more efficiently than general social media platforms or traditional RSS readers. Currently in beta, Uncited offers a faster, more focused approach to staying current with research in specific fields.

I wrote an RSS reader called RSS Brain recently. The motivate is the current RSS readers either don't sort articles by priority, which makes it hard to read posts from HackerNews and Reddit, or sort it with some "smart" algorithm which I don't trust. I also like the Google News feature that can show related story from different source, but the sources are not configurable and the algorithm is not transparent either. So with RSS Brain, I implemented these features: * Recommend related articles from the feeds of your choice. It's backed by ElasticSearch and the algorithm is described on RSS…
- RTReal-time system that tracks how news spreads across 200k websitesNov 2025 · yandori.io · ▲256
I built a system that monitors ~200,000 news RSS feeds in near real-time and clusters related articles to show how stories spread across the web. It uses Snowflake’s Arctic model for embeddings and HNSW for fast similarity search. Each “story cluster” shows who published first, how fast it propagated, and how the narrative evolved as more outlets picked it up. Would love feedback on the architecture, scaling approach, and any ways to make the clusters more accurate or useful. Live demo: https://yandori.io/news-flow/

Well, I certainly tried. I had to, because it has a certain quirk inspired by "digital minimalism." The quirk is that it only allows you to fetch new articles once per day (or X days). Why? Let me explain... I want my internet content to be like a boring newspaper. You get it in the morning, and you read the whole thing while sipping your morning coffee, and then you're done! No more new information for today. No pings, no alerts, peace, quiet, zen, etc. But with that, I needed it to be able to fetch all articles from my hundreds of feeds in one sitting. This is where Zig and curl…
- IMI made an open source Mailchimp RSS-to-Email alternative2024 · github.com · ▲109
Hi all! Excited to share rss2newsletter after completing dev work for the initial release. The idea for this project came out of necessity, as I wanted to share my articles via email newsletter. I was looking for a super minimal, lightweight, and open source solution, and when none existed, I decided to create one. For any sizable number of email recipients, a popular platform like Mailchimp will easily cost you hundreds or even thousands per month in per-contact fees. rss2newsletter, on the other hand, allows you to use Amazon SES, so you can reach your audience at pennies on the dollar.…
