It took us 15 minutes to convert our existing Chrome extension into Safari Web Extension.

Would be less, if we’d choose the Firefox one, as Mozilla doesn’t allow you to use the legacy Web API. But who knew?!

It takes more time to write the App Store listing than turn your existing plugin into brand new Safari Extension.

Psst… don’t forget to update your Bundle ID everywhere, it costed us a rejection from Apple’s review and a couple of hours of delay!

Here is the guide from Apple: <https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/safari_web_extensions/converting_a_web_extension_for_safari>

And here are the extensions if you are curious: <https://mailist.app>

Bookmarks which you wanted to read, but simply forgot...

It happened to me all the time. I bookmarked the articles to read later and simply forgot about them. Forever.

I built Mailist to help with that. Already 2350 users enjoy their "weekly digests" composed from their bookmarks. It makes me super happy!

So now, https://mailist.app Pro account allows you to send an email newsletter every day, built from your bookmarks.

Does it sound interesting? The free version (weekly email) is available for everyone!

Let me know what you think.

PS. Unlike other tools, we care about your privacy and don't suggest promo content based on your saved links.

Hey, I've just added Pro Plan to my baby side project.

https://mailist.app/ generates a weekly email that takes random unread articles from your list and reminds you to get to them. Once you do, you cross off the link from your list.

How do you add links to Mailist? It's super simple: - With Chrome/Firefox browser extension - via Import feature (from browser bookmarks folder, Pocket) - Using webapp

What does it help with? Remind you to read what you saved for later!

Cheers!

There are a lot of bookmarking tools from the native browser bookmarker to standalone ones like Pocket and Evernote. But Mailist adds a clever --and really important--piece that's missing in all the other ones: a follow-up mechanism that closes the loop. In this case, it generates a weekly email that takes random unread articles from your list and reminds you to get to them. Once you do, you cross off the link from your list.

Let me know what you think!
