👍 Readers are the Future of the Social Web

With things like Monocle, Together and Indigenous, I’m thinking we can get there. There’s things I’d like to see that I’m working on bundling into my own take on a social reader (codename Brother Eye for now):

• I’d like to see from my reader who’ve interacted with a particular post. Bonus points if it’s sorted by people who I have marked a particular relationship with.
• The ability to surface recommendable content and also explain why it was shown without marketing jargon is also a big add.
• Having humane design principles built in is a must.

This is just a short list of things I’d want to see in said readers. I’ll add more as time goes on.
