Show HN: I built a tool to help you read Hacker News on Kindle
12 by longnguyen | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Hi HN, I'm Daniel Nguyen. In June, I quit my job to start indie hacking full-time. The idea of KTool first came to my mind when I was reading "Ask HN: I'm a software engineer going blind, how should I prepare?"[0] I've been wearing glasses since I was 5. My right eye is basically blind. Doctors said there is no chance to cure it. I was genuinely scared. Like holy shit, if my left eye stops working, my life is done. Since then I've been very conscious about time spent on computer screens. That's when I started using Kindle-related products: to offload as many reading materials as possible to the Kindle. I was a happy customer of Push to Kindle. Great product! Then I ran into multiple limitations which led me to build KTool: a tool to send anything online to Kindle. Blog posts, Twitter threads, Hacker News discussions, RSS, newsletters... you name it. But I'm not here to pitch my vision for KTool. I built a specific tool to help you send HN discussions to your Kindle. And in the spirit of Show HN, it doesn't require an account. If you don't own a Kindle, there is the option to download the EPUB. Let me know what you think. Any feedback will be much appreciated. If you're a Kindle owner and you read a lot of online content, give KTool a try. [0]: https://ift.tt/x7YlN4J
