Hacker News Reader

How is this different from feedly other than that it has no android or browser support?

I was expecting a media wall like sc2daily, but with tech information.

edit: it has browser support, I didn't see the button earlier.

I've been using Volley since early betas, and my favorite part is the social aspect. It almost feels like a "private HN" or subreddit for my group of friends. (We used to all be Google Reader addicts, until Google killed the social features, and then axed Reader entirely).

Private HN is a great way to put it. It's been a useful way for me to see what my friends find interesting, rather than having to comb for them on FB / Twitter.

We wanted to take a different approach to RSS. We think our app will be more convenient for many people than setting up an RSS reader. It's just a curated selection of great writers. No hassle. It's not for power RSS users but we think it gives you a good, manageable mix of quality content. We also have a read later tool and some powerful social messaging features that we think work great on mobile.

Also - we are adding more authors if you have any suggestions!
