---
## What is Readspace?
Readspace is an **open-source, privacy-first reading hub** that brings all your favorite content into one clean, distraction-free inbox—**no ads, algorithms, or trackers**.
* **Unified Inbox:** RSS feeds, newsletters, saved articles, Twitter threads, Reddit posts, books—all in one place.
* **Chronological & Clean:** Feeds are delivered in order; you decide what stays and what goes.
* **Privacy & Ownership:** Fully self-hostable, zero third‑party tracking, your data stays with you.
* **Calm & Curated:** Leverage AI-powered summaries and noise filtering so you only see what matters, letting you focus on reading without overwhelm.
> **What is RSS?** RSS is like a personal newswire: subscribe once and get updates from all your favorite sites in one simple, chronological feed. No ads, no algorithms—just the latest posts you choose.
## Who Is This For?
Readspace is perfect if you:
* Hate endless tabs, bookmarks, and unread lists.
* Crave a single place for news, newsletters, tweets, and more.
* Value privacy and want full control over your reading data.
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
* **Git**: For cloning the repository.
* **Docker**: Ensure Docker Desktop or Docker Engine is installed and running (v20 or higher recommended).
### Self-Hosting with 3 steps
Readspace is designed for easy self-hosting, giving you complete control over your data and experience.
1. **Clone the Repository**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/kamui-fin/readspace.git
cd readspace
```
2. **Configure `.env` files**
```bash
./setup.sh
```
3. **Launch services**
```bash
./start_docker.sh
```
4. **Access your instance**
After a bit, your Readspace instance should be accessible in your web browser.
Visit `localhost:8042`. Optionally, you can configure your reverse proxy to point to it.

## Community & Roadmap
We're building Readspace transparently and collaboratively. Join our growing community and help shape the future of focused reading:
* **Discord:** [Join our community here](https://discord.gg/2Q5PtYwUQZ)
* **GitHub:** Star us and help shape the product.
## What about the alternatives?
* **Feedly** has pivoted to enterprise threat detection, offers a severely limited free tier, and suffers from declining reliability.
* **Readwise Reader** is not really geared towards RSS, still in beta after years, proprietary and paywalled.
**Readspace** offers a superior, transparent, and open-source alternative. We're built by readers, for readers, with a singular focus on an exceptional reading experience.
We believe you'll feel the difference.
