@Bdkl Fun! It’s crossed my mind more than once — and more often lately — to do an official NetNewsWire for Linux. (Using GTK, yes, though I’d use Swift in order to share code.)

@brentsimmons I haven’t seen any commentary on the state of Swift on Linux. I’m not gonna lie, I wrote it off once I sold my MacBook and focused on C and Rust. But it looks like it actually has quite the life over here. The hardest part was making it not look spartan on Linux. Not exactly well known for being very UI focused. It’s probably the thing i miss the most about MacOS.

@brentsimmons @Bdkl netnewswire is one of the apps I miss since fully switching to Linux. I appreciate this project but would also be interested in an official port of course :).
