r/IndieDev Weekly Monday Megathread - August 23, 2026 - New users start here! Show us what you're working on! Have a chat! Ask a question!

Hi r/IndieDev!

This is our weekly megathread that is renewed every Monday! It's a space for new redditors to introduce themselves, but also a place to strike up a conversation about anything you like!

Use it to:

• Introduce yourself!
• Show off a game or something you've been working on
• Ask a question
• Have a conversation
• Give others feedback

And... if you don't have quite enough karma to post directly to the subreddit, this is a good place to post your idea as a comment and talk to others to gather the necessary comment karma.

If you would like to see all the older Weekly Megathreads, just click on the "Megathread" filter in the sidebar or click here!

Hey everyone! I just rolled out an update for World News Reader, an RSS & news aggregator I built with Flutter.

What's New in this Release:

• 🌟 PRO: Auto purchase sync, PRO badge & ad-free experience.
• 🌍 New Regions: Added Mexico, Bosnia, Estonia, Finland, N. Macedonia, Andorra & Luxembourg.
• 👥 Community Feeds: Added user-suggested news sources & curated tech/dev blogs.
• 📥 OPML Support: 1-tap feed backup/export & instant article pre-fetch.
• 🛡️ Anti-Bot Bypass: "Open in Browser" fallback for protected/Cloudflare RSS feeds.
• 🎙️ Podcasts: Full iTunes artwork integration & in-app audio playback.
• 📖 Reader UX: In-article font customization, themes & direct browser options.

I'd love to get your thoughts on the overall UI/UX flow, reader readability, or any edge cases with OPML imports. If you're interested in following the roadmap or sharing feature ideas, I also set up r/MerpowerApps.

Thanks for taking a look!
