I’ve been a big fan of the slick interface of Omnivore. It could process web sites, email newsletters and RSS feeds.

The users have just been informed that Omnivore has “joined” the AI startup Eleven Labs. It may be bitter how OSS projects are being sucked up by AI, but that alone sounds innocuous enough.

What is upsetting is that the users have only until the 15.11 to export their data, after which the service will be deactivated. The export format is only usable with Eleven Labs, and exports for Pocket, Instapaper, etc are not offered, which I find just insulting.

I didn’t even get an e-mail. I found out when I went to save an article as usual and there was a little banner at the top of the page.

At least they’ve extended the migration period until November 30.

Stumbled upon it not too long ago but hadn’t yet determined it important enough for me to use yet. But I can see the tech stack looks like something I could get back into. If a fork starts I might finally move my lazy ass to do a PR here or review there. I’ll keep an eye out on it
