I really appreciate all the feedback from the community! I haven't had time to address everything yet, but I thought I'd share the redesign as I continue to make this a useful tool for everyone who needs to find a new home for their articles. For anyone who saw the old version, I think you'll agree it has come a long way!

Edit: Okay, after looking around at this, something seems... off. Linking to
getoffpocket.com?by=lemmywas odd already, but then I noticed that every single service here appears to have a referral link. Even the OneNote link has a referral code stapled onto it:https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/onenote/digital-note-taking-app?rby=getoffpocket.com%2Fproprietary%2Fmicrosoft-onenote%2FFor some reason, those same UTM links are used for everything, including links to GitHub?
How about no extra query parameters at all?I'm also surprised there's not even a passing mention to Obsidian and Evernote.
I think I'll stick to searching out my own recs on AlternativeTo

It takes a lot of effort to make something like this. I appreciate any support people are willing to provide so I can continue improving it.

I thought Omnivore was sold.
Also, isn’t pocket being renamed to something? Odd having it listed as an “alternative” to itself!

Thanks for the feedback!
Omnivore is still around as an open source project. There's no official hosting. That may need to be represented better.
As far as I know Pocket is completely shutting down. It would be big news if it isn't. I heard some things about someone buying it, but the Pocket website hasn't been updated in a couple weeks since I heard that first.
It's a good point about Pocket being listed. There are some plans to make it easier to compare alternatives to Pocket and that's why it's there. A bit of a partially finished thought right now, given that I pulled that out of what was released. I'll look at hiding it.

Great, you stole my domain. Now I have to come up with a whole new brand for my new line of travel sized fleshlights.

Good look! Might I suggest it would look better with the pocket logo being next to the "Get off pocket" text instead of below.

For those unaware: RSS is still a thing and still works. You don't need fancy platforms and algorithms to follow sites that post stuff you care about. Just an RSS catcher.
On F-Droid, Capy Reader does a great job and supports full article downloads to circumvent the sites that only put previews on RSS.
