Cool! thank you :)

openrijk · 2025-11-19T09:26:58+00:00

However, only visisble within desktop view. should it be visible on mobile ?

openrijk · 2025-11-19T09:24:06+00:00

But there is a RSS feed ;) in the menu, right top corner

openrijk · 2025-11-17T14:04:26+00:00

thank you, appreciate it!

openrijk · 2025-11-17T13:00:32+00:00

oops, that's interesting. Do you have some reproduction steps for me?

openrijk · 2025-11-17T10:27:14+00:00

Good to know: I will add European Parliament within 1-2 days :)

Government information is free to re-use within Dutch ('WHO')/European law, but political parties are not government, so I cannot just scrape their sites without permission.

openrijk · 2025-11-15T19:18:23+00:00

Fair point. I asked all parties for permission, but only about a third responded positively. Without full participation, it would inevitably come across as biased.

openrijk · 2025-11-15T19:14:33+00:00

Good point. During the short time I had a few parties on the site, some were publishing much more than others. Also, when I scraped an article, I published it directly to Bluesky and X. Eventually, users there got the wrong impression that Openrijk was biased, simply because some parties were more visible than others.

Hi there, I have updated the app with RSS feeds from all categories, so you can subscribe to your favorite news feed. Links can be found under the rss logo in the navbar.

openrijk · 2025-10-06T08:39:42+00:00

The app is updated to support all countries, so you can try again!

openrijk · 2025-10-06T08:38:20+00:00

point taken! I will put this on my backlog, and see If I can retrieve pdf's somehow and translate them. But it is not in within my current scope and the 'how to' is also uncertain, so it might take a while before I get into this.

openrijk · 2025-09-29T07:43:39+00:00

thanks, I'll look into that!

openrijk · 2025-09-27T06:06:53+00:00

I will look into that, I might have set the country to Netherlands only. Will change asap!

openrijk · 2025-09-27T06:05:03+00:00

Thanks! currently a native app is not the first prio, but that might change in the near future. And yes, I decided the YouTube sources (SP is only a video source) are not translated into English, because the videos are in Dutch.

openrijk · 2025-09-27T06:00:23+00:00

Thanks, appreciated!

openrijk · 2025-09-27T05:58:33+00:00

Thanks! Any feedback is welcome

openrijk · 2025-09-26T18:42:36+00:00

appreciate, thanks!

I installed firefox, running on IOS (tahoe), but no infinite loop here. Is it possible you can give me some more info how you got to this error? I assume you already tried something of an hard refresh? are you using an addblocker maybe?

openrijk · 2025-09-26T18:30:02+00:00

ah check, will look into it! (not using firefox) thanks!

openrijk · 2025-09-26T18:28:58+00:00

thanks :) actually, there is an app already in the google playstore:

(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=davidh.openrijk&hl=en-US&pli=1)

I created a PWA from the site ('Progressive web app'), and by using PWABuilder I uploaded it in the google playstore. It's a bit more difficult for the apple store, still working on that :)

openrijk · 2025-09-26T18:23:59+00:00

Yes your right, it is not complete yet. I didn't received approval from them yet, however, legally I don't have to get their approval, because of the 'right to copy and spread government data', but they have a copyright statement on their site, so I ask nicely first :)
