Sorry if this is a bit off-topic but for me the website is overwhelming. Everything is very large and animated which makes me dizzy. I don't know what is happening when I scroll.

I actually came here to say the opposite. I thought the landing page was really well done.

This is great. I always feel like I have to read stuff because I’ll forget to do it later and I hate the “reading list” thing in apple

Ha, why do you hate the reading list in apple? A few people asked us to sync their reading lists to Alfread but Apple doesn't allow that, of course

They don’t allow it in their TOS or App Store guidelines?

Desktop Safari supports bookmark (& reading list) export via an HTML file on the off chance you’re not aware, and it isn’t banned.

How do you access it? I tried to open it on mobile just now and it looks ok, it's the PC version that bugs me.

We might be talking about different things: one off export is possible like you mentioned but no way to sync saved links to the reading list continuously as there’re no API’s for that from Apple
