Tapestry 1.0
Tapestry combines posts from your favorite social media services like Bluesky, Mastodon, Tumblr and others with RSS feeds, podcasts, YouTube channels and more. All of your content presented in chronological order, with no algorithm deciding what you should or shouldn't see.

Third-party connectors can be added to Tapestry to allow it to work with even more sources. If it has a publicly-accessible feed on the internet, a connector can be built for it.
Tapestry is a free download on the App Store, with subscription options available to remove ads, unlock custom timelines, content muting, and theme customization. Subscriptions run $1.99/month, $19.99/year, or you can make a one-time purchase of $79.99.
Connectors are created with standard web technologies: JavaScript and JSON. All of Tapestry’s connectors are open source and easy to adapt for your needs.
You’ll use Tapestry Loom on a Mac to test and debug your connector[…]
Centralized systems have shown their weakness and siloed content has as much a chance of surviving as “You’ve got mail!”.
Tapestry was built with this change in mind. Your content comes from a lot of different places, and how that data is retrieved from a feed is entirely customizable. Our goal was to put RSS, social media, podcasts, and more into a flexible and easy-to-read timeline. Tapestry syncs this variety of feeds across devices in a way that is seamless, secure, and easy to understand.
I am not sure I want all of these things inside a single app’s timeline. I typically want to treat reading web feeds as a discrete task, for example, and I would use a dedicated podcast client instead. But I like the idea of a merged social media feed. Some people have accounts on Bluesky, Mastodon, and Micro.blog, while others are on only one of those services. I would often like to see all of them at the same time.

What I would really like — and I do not mean to sound ungrateful or demanding — is a MacOS client.

Now wait a minute, I thought between Catalyst and Apple Silicon, we had that whole “no Mac app for this iOS app” thing solved years ago!
I had a lot of hope for that for a short time. But it seems Apple management support for it dried up real fast.
