Sweet! Each time you update this set of features I feel less confident about trying the other read-later services. It’s to the point wherein, as with Epilogue, I’d happily use an app dedicated to just this part of Micro.blog.

@SimonWoods A dedicated app is a really interesting idea, especially since the official Micro.blog app can’t really do everything yet that the web site can do. Right now I don’t think we have enough people to manage yet another app. Maybe a third-party opportunity.

@SimonWoods , how does this work when you have multiple highlighting abilities in your browser? (I’m a major user of Readwise.)

@cambridgeport90 I don’t use Readwise so I’m not sure. It might conflict, but I think if you use Readwise then at least the highlighting part of this feature could be ignored. The bookmarks and archiving would still work.

thank you for the clarification. That’s sort of what I was figuring, but I just wanted to make sure. Either way, I love what you’re doing with us. Which is one of the reasons why I went back to using it full-time at least for the time being.

@cambridgeport90 Thanks!

@SimonWoods I like this idea. I also think there’s room for an app to better manage tags.

Hmmmm…that “Links” section might be really handy… 🤔 Nice work.

@cambridgeport90 - or we could integrate

@pratik @cambridgeport90 @JohnPhilpin We have a highlights CSV export (Posts → “…”) that I think is compatible with Readwise. I’ve signed up for Readwise but haven’t had a chance to really explore more.

@pratik given by the list of integrations they already have … I’m going to go with yes.

@pratik 🤙🏽

@pratik I think those sync options were built by Readwise themselves. However, we could have an option inside Micro.blog that would push highlights into Readwise.

readwise has an API. I just discovered it trying to figure out how to sync to my own site. readwise.io/api_deets

@Archimage It looks pretty good. 👍

@pratik

Ummm .. no inside track .. I just find them very responsive.

@pratik yup … readwise to mb is the needed use case.

@JohnPhilpin @pratik Okay, I’ve added an initial highlights sync to Readwise! Click Bookmarks → “…” → Export. It has some limitations so we’ll see how it works in practice and consider more later.

Nicely done … Thankyou … but only premium micro bloggers … right? That’s the message I am getting.

@pratik Hmm, I think we do have page title that we could show there. For a Chrome extension, Omnibear should work, but to be honest I haven’t tested it in a while.

@JohnPhilpin Yes, highlights are Micro.blog Premium only. It is supposed to be hidden otherwise, but I might have a bug there.

Very cool, I will try this out. I am a dedicated Readwise subscriber.

@pratik :-)

@pratik I lost track of this … is there a Micro.blog highlights to Readwise sync? I looked for it in the help center but didn’t see it.

@cygnoir @pratik Yes, there’s an Export option under the “…” menu now. You can export as CSV or set a Readwise token to sync new highlights to Readwise as they are created. (Won’t sync previous highlights, though.)

Got it. I just tested it with a highlight on Micro.blog and it synced to Readwise. 👍🏻

@cygnoir Excellent.
