An IndieWeb reader: My new home on the internet

A social reader is a modern interactive reader that allows you to directly respond to posts (with a like, comment, etc) right there inline with posts as you read them (as people do in social media), in contrast to legacy feed readers which were one-way read-only experiences and provided no mechanisms to interact with or respond to posts.

A reader in the context of the indieweb is either a feature integrated into an indieweb site or a separate site or piece of software that provides a way to read content from indieweb sites and sometimes respond (like, comment, repost, etc).
