Built a tool to help myself read better – but is it useful for others?

3 pointsby roznoshchikabout 4 years ago
I’ve been working on making a tool for myself to be able to read better.<p>Here&#x27;s a bit about how it works: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.indiehackers.com&#x2F;post&#x2F;principles-for-effective-learning-in-lurnby-aa2d52c4c6<p>In the end, it is a bit similar to Readwise, in that it helps process highlights, but not from a kindle rather from articles and ebooks added to the app.<p>It’s become quite useful in my own reading workflow, and even more so since I built a small spaced repetition review feature for surfacing the highlights back up periodically.<p>But I seriously need to get out of my own head and understand if I’m also doing anything meaningful for people other than me.<p>If anyone here would be willing to get on a quick vid call with me to review what I made and let me know how it fits with your existing reading workflow, I’d be super grateful.<p>I have a website for it at lurnby.com and the app itself is at app.lurnby.com - although the UX and lack of onboarding might make it hard to understand exactly what it does without a demo.<p>Thanks!
