lawgimenez··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (March 2026)
I’ve been working on an RSS reader for macOS and iOS - https://gmnz.xyz/projects/ember-feed/

It has gained a little traction in Reddit and grateful for the several paying users currently giving me lots of feedback. One of the features is that you get to import your own font using any otf, ttf files. App is 100% native too written in SwiftUI, AppKit and UIKit.

I just wanted my own interpretation of an RSS Reader app, I have been a heavy user of both Reeder and NNW but the interface is just the same and I got bored a lot.
