I'm SUPER excited to announce the launch of Rad Reader! 🤩

A calm tool (OSX, Linux & Windows; 6MB & Electron-free!) for reading and following RSS feeds. I've been working on this for the past months during spare time and it's my first journey in making something polished enough to sell!

To celebrate its launch the price is reduced to 4.95 USD (34% off) for the rest of the week! If that feels like a lot, please try the free demo!!

Boosts very much appreciated!

@cblgh Oooh, I quite like this approach to open source. 🤔

Giving the demo a go on Guix...
Hm, it's a static binary, which is nice, but it does try to use /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, which doesn't exist on Guix, and I'm pretty sure has a different name on Musl based systems like Alpine.
Not a deal breaker, but it does mean I'll have to figure out what packages it needs and run it in an FHS container with them.

@cblgh Also some tags for better visibility in the OP might be a good idea.

@cblgh Hmm, I guess the obvious ones would be RSS and feedReader.
