Apart from the Copyright thing (it sucks) I think this project is really cool. If you are willing to share the source code, I would be hosting one instance of this over Tor (As I do with other stuff). I don't think there's a big difference between your platform and things like, for example, Invidious, Nitter, Bibliogram or even Drew Devaults HackerNews script. It simply makes reading *a lot* more pleasant. I really like reading in my Gemini client and it sucks that so much content is only published on Medium. I say take back the web. Copying culture is part of it. The thing you do absolutely is in the spirit of the early web, including free availability of information, to everyone. People on mobile, with data caps, in rural regions of the US (or Germany for that matter, or quite a lot of other countries) also have a right to access this content, in my opinion. Your project is *great* for that. Thanks again, you are my hero of the day
