X/Twitter accounts can be read in Readine. You add a link to a profile, and new posts arrive in the feed. There are no recommendations and no ads.
Twitter does not show everything you follow. The algorithm changes the order of posts, bumps some up, hides others and mixes in ads.
In 2023, Twitter cut off third-party developers and raised its API prices. Most reading apps dropped Twitter support.
In Readine the feed works differently. Posts from the accounts you chose appear in it, in chronological order. No ads.
Posts come with text and images. Video opens via a link in another app.
In the Readine app you can read not only Twitter but also RSS feeds, Telegram channels, YouTube, Substack, Boosty, Fanbox, Patreon and Sponsr.
Readine saves an offline copy of posts automatically. You can search across text, notes and tags.
