Always watching
It checks, so you don't.
Our servers keep polling every source you follow, around the clock. A post published at 3am is waiting at breakfast, or pinging your phone the moment it lands.
Hushread keeps checking the sources you follow, even while you're asleep. The moment someone you care about publishes, you get a push notification. No algorithm deciding what you see. Just your sources, newest first.

"The thing that always bothered me about RSS: someone I care about publishes something, and I won't know until I remember to check my reader. So I built one that keeps checking while I sleep. No algorithm, no engagement tricks. Just the people you follow, the moment they publish."
