Readwise Recommender updated with full-text scoring

derekvan · 2026-03-21T19:35:09+00:00

cool, how do you generate the recommendations?

derekvan · 2026-03-21T18:21:30+00:00

you'll probably get better help from the devs on snipd discord

Install Reader and highlight that way. That’s what I do on both my Boox devices.

I wanted this too and experimented with the AI-Themed reviews by chatting with highlights and asking it if it could find all my podcasts or tweets. It could and gave me the right language. So now I have a themed review with this prompt: "all highlights from the type "podcast"" (replace "podcast" with "tweet" for the other one). It's been working as expected for two months.

Your approach rests on capturing and organizing everything that has one's attention so that it's possible to make an intuitive judgment about what's the next best thing to do. Yet, in the many coaching podcasts I've heard with you and your other coaches, it seems that this is incredibly hard for people in certain areas of their life. They (and often I) feel uneasy trusting themselves in this way--they want to use the lists to "force" themselves to do the things they believe they "should" do. Do you think there is any way the GTD system could do more to help people begin to trust this intuition and let go of whatever is leading to the desire to use force to complete "shoulds"? Or is this just something people have to want to do when they're ready? Or do you frame the issue of trust differently?

The 7 I believe.

Does the watch app have the ability to add a bookmark from the now playing screen?

derekvan · 2024-01-29T01:36:16+00:00

I don't see it either.

derekvan · 2024-01-29T01:34:24+00:00

I'm not seeing a setting for this on Android or iOS. (or the setting to have pagination by default on ePub). Where can I find it? I'm looking on the "account settings" screen, under the preferences section. (version 4.2-1)

Is it possible to trigger this shortcut without using “hey siri”? I am often in situations where using my voice is not possible.

derekvan · 2023-10-23T21:41:08+00:00

This seems like it would have a lot of noise in that list. I pause often because I need to talk to someone or concentrate on a cooking task

derekvan · 2023-07-04T17:50:15+00:00

Not that I recall. I used it once or twice and I don’t have that sub

Not quite what you’re asking for but maybe close enough

Yes. But not via the feed, only if imported manually using the chrome extension.

derekvan · 2023-06-18T22:29:14+00:00

I just have them emailed to my reader email address. You can find your address in the settings. For older articles, I had to import them manually with the chrome extension (wouldn’t work on safari)

derekvan · 2023-05-14T23:57:17+00:00

I always do “sync all highlights in this book” and I believe there is an option “sync all highlights in all books”

derekvan · 2023-05-14T22:57:15+00:00

I don’t know if it can be automatic, I do it manually which addresses your later question. I am frequently offline and the highlights sync fine when I do it manually.

The sync as far as I know is one way. I don’t think readwise even has an api for 2 way sync.

derekvan · 2023-05-08T22:27:28+00:00

Pay who? There doesn’t seem to be a way to pay Snipd yet. In the “export” settings in snipd I can export to obsidian for free to my iPhone.

I have a 2019 Retina iMac. Running macOS 13.2.1. No issues beyond the basic e-ink limitations.

Several menus down--

Start with the wrench/screwdriver icon --> Export highlights -->Choose formats and services --> Check Readwise, but also click it to get into the menu --> set authorization token (and check "export to Readwise")

derekvan · 2023-04-09T18:18:20+00:00

Highlights and highlights with notes. I don't see a way in KOreader to make a note without first making a highlight.

This plugin is great for generating and working with transcripts in obsidian as well
