## What it is
Omnivore is a complete, open source read-it-later application for saving and reading articles, with highlighting, notes, search, labels, PDF support, and an RSS client. It is now fully self-hosted (the cloud service was deprecated in November 2024) and includes web, iOS, Android, and browser extension clients.

## Use cases
- save articles to read later with a distraction-free reader
- highlight text and add notes while reading long articles
- self-host a read-it-later service on my own server
- send newsletter articles to my reading queue via email
- read saved PDFs and RSS feeds in one place
- sync highlights to Obsidian or Logseq
- listen to articles with text-to-speech

## When to choose
- you want a fully open source, self-hosted alternative to Pocket or Instapaper
- you need highlighting, notes, labels, and full-text search for saved content
- you want cross-platform clients including browser extensions and mobile apps
- you want to integrate your reading highlights with Obsidian or Logseq

## When to avoid
- you want a managed cloud service with no server maintenance
- you need text-to-speech on platforms other than iOS
- you need a lightweight bookmarking tool without a full server stack
- you require heavy ongoing feature development, since the project is in community maintenance mode
