Feature Request: lobste.rs support #33

Given a similar layout, it would be nice to have lobste.rs feed (with or without specified tags) mixed in HN feed.

Interesting suggestion! lobste.rs is similar, but not similar enough where it's just a drop-in replacement. The API also appears to be simple and yet pretty much entirely undocumented. Most importantly though, I think adding lobste.rs to a Hacker News client is not appropriate because they are different websites and therefore deserve separate apps. I don't really want to make Glider an aggregator for multiple websites.

I would not mind to see someone fork Glider and turn it into a lobste.rs client. The fork's name should be fairly obvious.
