Hi all!
The Reading Infrastructure Team has created an RFC for a Reading List
Service to be used both by the platforms within Reading and by 3rd party
developers as well.
RfC: Reading List service <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T164990>
If you have used the Wikipedia Android app, you may already be using
Reading Lists. While many Android users love Reading Lists, unfortunately
there is no way to sync them across devices. This new service will allow
users to sync these lists for the first time while keeping them private.
The current plan is to develop this service for beta usage in the Android
app. And then after testing and feedback, evaluate the service for roll out
it out the rest of the reading platforms: iOS, mobile web, and desktop web
with consultation from the community.
For more details please check out the RFC and post comments and questions
in there.
Thanks everyone!
