Show HN: Snapbyte – personalized email digests from HN/Reddit/Lobsters

2 points by onatm a month ago · 0 comments · 1 min read

Creator here. I built Snapbyte because I stopped having the time/energy to browse Hacker News / Reddit / Lobsters / Devto regularly, but I still wanted to keep up with things worth reading. Snapbyte collects posts from multiple tech communities, filters them based on your interests, summarises them, and sends you a personalised email digest on a schedule you choose.

You can try it without creating an account (the homepage shows real example digests).

Some implementation details: Runs as a set of small services on my k8s cluster. Scraping via trafilatura. Summaries via gemini-3-flash-preview. Mix of TypeScript / Python / Go

Happy to answer questions, especially around scoring/filtering and what sources people would want next.

Note: if this post makes it to the HN front page, it’ll likely show up in Snapbyte digests tomorrow.
