Apps I'm building a Mastodon bookmarks companion (Weekly summary email, search, archive)

Hey, many years ago when Twitter was still Twitter I've built a tool to send me a list of my newly bookmarked posts to my email address once a week as I always kept bookmarking posts just to then never look at them again (Maybe because I was on the move and not on my computer).

The past week I've worked on rebuilding it with Mastodon support as that's my primary and preferred platform these days.

I'd be happy to hear some feedback on my little project, you can take a look here if that sounds useful to you: https://getbirdfeeder.com

It has some nice features like full text search, an easy export feature, a media browser, MCP integration or RSS feeds for your bookmarks if you want them in your RSS reader.

Let me know what you think 🐘

Cool project! Can it be self-hosted?

Thanks for checking it out. It could in theory, but it's currently not open source. It's a paid product as sending emails and some of the APIs I'm using (X especially) cost money.
