Always great to see more RSS readers. Are you thinking about making it API compatible with others so people can use any of the existing apps?

I'm currently using https://github.com/miniflux/miniflux (Also written in Go) and it supports the Fever API which means I can use any app on most platforms to sync with.

This is probably a dumb question, but what does the Fever API do that isn't done in RSS itself? Does it keep track of what you've read already?

Not a dumb question. It syncs read status across their web interface and every Fever supporting app on all platforms. You can also "star" items which then also gets synced.

I personally don't use apps, but if there'll be enough interest from the community, I might consider making it fever-compatible in the future.

I also use Miniflux and would appreciate Fever support.
