After being blocked by Twitter in 2023, the company behind Twitterrific, Iconfactory, has finally launched its multi-feed app, Tapestry, which enables users to add sources like RSS, YouTube, Bluesky, Podcasts, Mastodon, Reddit, Tumblr, Micro.blog, and more to unified feeds.

The idea behind Tapestry is to collate different sources of information from across the web, recognizing that many platforms have emerged as hubs for various kinds of content. By supporting multiple protocols, the app aims to provide a comprehensive and customizable experience for users.

Tapestry was initially launched as a Kickstarter project in January 2025, raising over $177,000 without taking any investment from institutional investors. The company's commitment to independence has allowed it to develop the project on its own terms.

Users can add sources to the app and start by looking at the default feed. The app offers a wide range of customization options, including the look of the feed, font, theme, and icon style, as well as how links open. Additionally, users can create custom rules to mute or avoid certain content, including spoilers, using the app's Muffle feature.

Iconfactory has emphasized the importance of user privacy, stating that all user data is stored locally on the device and is not sold or shared with third parties. This commitment to privacy is a significant differentiator in an era where data privacy concerns are increasingly prominent.

The app is free to use, but features like creating multiple feeds, removing ads, and custom icons are locked behind a subscription. Users can pay $1.99 a month, $19.99 a year, or a $79.99 one-time fee to get premium access to more features.

Tapestry is not the only app of its kind, as indie developers have also been exploring the idea of aggregating information from multiple sources. The Browser Company's engineer Nate Parrott built Feeeed, and Silvio Rizzi revamped the popular RSS app Reeder to become a multi-feed container. Former Twitter engineer Joe Fabisevich also created Plinky to make storing and consumption of content from different formats easier.

The launch of Tapestry marks an exciting development in the world of content aggregation and customization. As users increasingly seek more control over their online experiences, apps like Tapestry are well-positioned to meet this demand. With its commitment to user privacy, customization options, and support for multiple protocols, Tapestry is an app worth watching in the coming months.
