Include Instapaper? #7

Open derekvan opened 5 years ago

Do you use Instapaper at all? I’m curious about whether Instapaper highlights could be added to this app. I looked at the documentation, thinking I could rig something up with Shortcuts on the iPhone, but it’s way over my head I think. https://www.instapaper.com/api/full

I’m about 50/50 with highlights in kindle and Instapaper that I’d like to be emailed about. If it’s not your thing, no worries!

Thanks for your contribution! 🚀

I did not know Instapaper yet, but it looks cool.

I think we should definitely allow importing other highlights as well / be less opinionated about the import format. An automatic way to import Instapaper highlights is probably another step which can be done afterward (and I'm happy to integrate such changes if contributed by anyone).

In fact, before I realized you opened this issue, I just created another one stating this goal (#8).

What just popped up in my mind: RSS feeds might be a nice option to import highlights from different providers (at least Instapaper supports it as well)

yes, RSS would be very interesting. thanks for considering!
