Show HN: Start actually reading what you saved in your bookmarks – Meet Mailist
mailist.appIronically I've just saved this in my bookmarks to set up later on
Wow, this is awesome! I didn't even know I needed this until I peered into my dusty bookmarks folder, and realized I never actually got back to the articles I promised myself I'd finish.
It's also a very pretty site/extension (I'd say it's a Stripe tier landing page!). However, the list of bookmarks is a little low contrast. Perhaps it looks better on a hidpi macbook or something (macos does fonts differently I think) but on my 1080p PC, it's barely readable.
Also, on Firefox, I get a nag bar at the top that tells me "Store links from anywhere on the web with Mailist for Chrome." Clicking the X button does nothing.
Great work though! I will be using this.
Hey, thanks a lot for the feedback. Will definietely work on readability and fix the bug with the banner.
Perhaps obvious in this day and age, but bear in mind the privacy policy given that it has permission to read all of your browsing activity and obviously, all your bookmarks: We will not sell, rent, loan, trade, or the other way disclose your information with third parties unless such disclosure is necessary to: ... (d) promote our commercial interest
We are collecting only the email address and anonymously analyze links to implement auto categorizing really soon and help us create a base for personalized ads. We need to include the point you pasted in our Policy since we are using for example Google Analytics - which is a third party tool- which basically collects and process user information.
We built this tool because we needed it and decided to share it with others.
Oh, and you can remove your account and links anytime.
Wow, this is actually a really, really good idea and a great looking landing page for it along with a great explanation video.
How are you making money with this? This is awesome!
I now wish I came up with it before you did ...
Question: What is the website built on? Feels like NuxtJS but can't see anything to do with Nuxt in page source.
Not making any money yet, but the maintenence costs are low enough we can live with it. We are planning paid features which will be live soon. Also, we are planning to introduce some kind of personalized ads so it can help us with the revenue.
The app is built in Rails :)

Says on the site that its free forever. Maybe they could sell user information... Is that an option?
Congrats for the launch! Looks good.
Is there a way to import or sync existing browser bookmarks? I'd prefer to keep bookmarking in Chrome (cross-device), like many other users I suppose.
Hey, thanks! You can easily import bookmarks from Chrome using Import feature. You can access it from your account settings.
Cool, anyway to auto-sync with Google bookmarks?
Thats interesting idea. We will definitely think that through
