A Decade of Elytra
Aug 20, 2025In July of 2015, Google Reader had been shut down for two years now. The need for a good reader app and service wasn’t filled by most alternatives available then. I’d been thinking of building one myself, but it felt like a massive undertaking. And I was very specific with what I wanted from such an app:
- Private: No collection of personally identifiable information. Not even my name or email ID.
- Custom Font Support: This was critical for me so I could configure the app and make it easier for me read long-form articles.
- Fast: Should be backed by an API service which fetches articles for me, instead of my devices checking individual feeds.
