A photo of it being used on a physical device would do wonders here.

I have an always on linux server for projects and experiments. I ssh ed into it, ran claude and told it to run this as systemd user unit while giving it an opml file with all my feeds. 10 minutes later everything was working. Backups, caddy, let’s encrypt, admin auth…

Claude aside, this is a very neat piece of software, worked flawlessly from the beginning and now I have all my feeds on my kindle effortlessly, thank you for this!

For a moment I thought you were referring to the Rust wrapper for LLVM (https://github.com/TheDan64/inkwell) but the name makes much more sense in this context.

The term inkwell is overused in the reading space.

Anyone know why the "sebarb" user at the bottom of this post has all their comments flagged?

There's two flagged comments on this post and both their history seem overly enthusiastic and curious. Maybe LLM?
