I use both as well. Karakeep is a fantastic bookmarking app and could definitely work as a “read it later” application, but I think the differentiator is how they approach content. Karakeep more or less preserves the link and all content, but Readeck provides the content in a simplified version without ads/margins/navigation menus/etc. this also allows you better customization of fonts/sizes/etc.

When I want to bookmark a website for access/interaction later, it goes to Karakeep. When I want to save content to read later it goes to Readeck

    Totally agree there, I’m only aware it exists because I didn’t want to go through the hassle of setting up/maintaining either.

    I assume “minimal” refers more to the fact that it won’t have all Omnivore features rather than it being uncomplicated to set up
