Damn, @readwise.bsky.social kicking up some killer saved quotations for me this morning.
#readwise

I bit the bullet and paid for #readwise when #omnivore (kinda unceremoniously) shut down, and I’d probably ditch it if another FOSS thing popped up, but ngl I have found it useful enough that I didn’t regret seeing the renewal charge come through. Faint praise, but not rly damning.

Readwise Wrapped: my year in reading

TL;DR: I built Readwise Wrapped. It gives you a Spotify Wrapped style year-in-review for your Readwise highlights. You paste your Readwise token, pick a year, and it spits out a clean, shareable, good-looking reading recap.
Link: https://readwise-wrapped.apps.anantshri.info/

What is it?

If you use Readwise, you already have a ridiculous amount of reading data sitting there. Highlights from books, articles, tweets, podcasts, PDFs, random rabbit holes at 2 AM. Basically a personal library of “things that made me pause and go hmm.”

But Readwise does not really give you a flashy year-end recap. I wanted that.

So I made Readwise Wrapped.

You paste your Readwise token, select a year, and in a minute or two (depending on how big you are with highlights) you get a set of slides that summarize your reading year:

• Your Numbers: total highlights, books/articles/docs, words consumed, streaks
• Reading DNA: what you actually read (books vs articles vs tweets vs podcasts)
• Monthly Activity: which months were productive and which months were… aspirational
• Reading Rhythm: your peak days and favorite times to read
• Virtual Mentors: authors who show up the most in your highlights
• Top Books: your most highlighted reads
• Best Highlight: the one quote that basically screamed “remember me”
• Next Year Forecast: a small prediction of what you will likely read next, based on your late-year trends

If you enable AI insights, it also adds:

• Reading Personality: a fun label for your reading style
• Your Superpower: what your reading habits suggest you are good at
• Recommendations: books you might actually enjoy, not just “top 10 books everyone must read or else”

Privacy first, because of course

Your Readwise token is used only to fetch the data and then discarded. It is not stored.

Only the final wrapped output is saved, and it gets a unique URL you can share.

Sharing and exports

Each wrapped comes with:

• A shareable link
• A PDF download (multi-page report)
• A share card (1200×630) for Twitter/LinkedIn

Yes, I know. We are all addicted to neat rectangles with stats.

How it works

1. Get your Readwise access token: https://readwise.io/access_token
2. Open: https://readwise-wrapped.apps.anantshri.info/
3. Paste token, pick a year
4. Wait a minute or two
5. Swipe through the slides, then share or download

Happy reading. Or happy highlighting. Same thing, just with more optimism.

I am assuming people are right now collecting their year wraps. I found it was not available for readwise so i made a tool that can get you a year unwrap for readwise https://readwise-wrapped.apps.anantshri.info/

My #Readwise subscription is about to renew, and I feel like I am paying a lot of money for features I do not use. According to an email I received from them, they are also doubling-down on AI-powered features, I am probably not going to use.

Soo … what #RSS readers are you using? 👀

You email a screenshot of your podcast app (or lock screen while listening), they reply with a few paragraphs of text from the podcast leading up to that timestamp.

They say it works with Apple Podcasts and Spotify, but it also works with other apps in my experience. I can think of a bunch of uses for this, first one being #readwise

Turn your highlights into insights. Readwise helps you remember, review, and use what you read—so your best ideas never get lost again.

Thank you

coming up on my renewal for #Readwise and while I really like the functionality of it, namely through Reader and the way it resurfaces highlights, I really can't justify the cost to renew (had a student discount which I no longer have access to).

What other similar services do folks use? I'm kinda feeling like the way to go is splitting back to an RSS reader and bookmark manager and just having highlights go to Obsidian

#ReadLaterApps #RSSReader

Is there a way to pull highlighted quotes in a Libby book into #Readwise or a csv - if not what is the point of highlighting thinks in a borrowed book?

I just released a small update to ✨Reade,✨ my #LaunchBar Action to interact with the #Readwise API:

- The `list` command now supports filtering by tags, e.g., `list business case+study` will list items tagged “business” and “case study”. Multi-word tags need `+` separators in place of spaces.
- View distilled HTML output (`⌥-enter`).
- Lots of minor fixes.

Available here: https://github.com/quinncomendant/Reade.lbaction/releases

Bin total begeistert, dass das Tool #readwise jetzt die Quotes des Tages vorlesen kann. Mega Cool.

Wunderbar.

The real power of my stack lies in its automation, especially the synchronisation of notes. Notes flow into Readwise and then sync to Obsidian regularly. #ReadWise #Obsidian #Sync
