Hey Everyone, Yuriy here from dewey. @alexprober, @tomharari and I built dewey., a bookmark manager for Twitter Bookmarks. Yes yes, but there are others, what's the difference? Well, every other manager doesn't actually manage your existing or new Twitter bookmarks, they just make you use likes or tweet at some bot—in other words use yet another third-party. dewey. actually grabs your Twitter bookmarks so you can continue using the native functionality Twitter gives you, and then layers search, sort, tags, collections, sharing, and even export (all things that Twitter should have made by default). In fact, dewey. is the only way to actually get use out of your Twitter bookmarks, and by the look of it, there are millions of Twitter users using them over third-party products. But what about all this hoopla with Twitter Blue? Well, Twitter decided that basic quality of life features like creating folders for Bookmarks needs to be something they charge $2.99/mo for. Guess what they didn't do, give you any way to organize your existing bookmarks. Yes, if you have ~300 bookmarks (dewey. user average) then you have to doomscroll and organize manually. They are charging for a neutered feature—something dewey. does for free on top of many others.

Congratulations! How can I use this with Roam or Obsidian?

@swastikagurung1 Hi Swastika, Currently we offer option to export your personal collections so you can import them into any 3rd party. In the future we will offer a more seamless integration. Thank you, Alex.
Ryan Hoover
@swastikagurung1 good idea. Perhaps a Zapier integration would be useful.
Alex Prober
@rrhoover Already in the roadmap ;)
Swastika Gurung
@rrhoover Thanks. But Zapier is a bad idea :( Better, an Obsidian community plugin. I might use Zapier but never with Roam or Obsidian
Tom Harari
@rrhoover @swastikagurung1 Appreciate the feedback 🙌🏼
Adam Oskwarek
Sounds great! All my bookmarks generally are a huge tangled mess... just like my brain. Hopefully this will help :)
Yuriy Yarovoy
@adamolac thanks Adam! I know how that is—1000+ bookmarks and no way to sort them at all. That’s what made me want to build dewey. in the first place.

@yuriyyarovoy I am a digital hoarder at the best of times. Such a firehose of stuff I never get to/forget about that *might* be useful that's hidden away
Tom Harari
@yuriyyarovoy @adamolac Thanks guys, yeah we very much started from a place of how do we scratch our own itch.

I have been using Dewey for a month or so now and it is hands down the best Twitter bookmarks curator out there. Unlike others, you don't have to comment on the tweet for it to get saved in your dashboard. It just grabs all your bookmarks instantly which you can their organize according to your preference. The experience is seamless and it is an absolute life saver! Kudos to the team!
Yuriy Yarovoy
@anupamgarg thank you! That was our biggest frustration with existing tools. Everything takes you off-Twitter and forces you to use a separate bookmarking system. We built dewey. as the only way to keep using Twitter’s native bookmarks and layer on organization and curation.
Tom Harari
@anupamgarg Thats very kind of you! Thank you for giving us a shot at such an early stage
Lalit Pandey
This is something I was waiting for. Thanks a lot.
Yuriy Yarovoy
@lastyprsfe Frankly we got tired of waiting for Twitter to build it so we did it ourselves. We have some awesome updates in the works to make it even better =)
Tom Harari
@lastyprsfe Yay 👏🏼🙌🏼
Roman Velmagov
Looks good :)
Yuriy Yarovoy
@roman_velmagov Thanks Roman!
Tom Harari
@roman_velmagov Thanks Roman!
Gabe Perez
Love the way this looks. The search/sorting function is 👌 Excited to try this out, maybe it'll get me to actively look through my bookmarks again.
Yuriy Yarovoy
@gabe__perez that’s our hope. So much gold in bookmarks that’s lost forever because there’s no way to dig down deep.
Tom Harari
@gabe__perez Let us know what you think after you give it a spin!
Sharath Kuruganty
You are probably going to save a lot of souls on Twitter coz everyone craves for better bookmark system 😅 Great idea guys!
Yuriy Yarovoy
@5harath Thanks! I hope so =) I am definitely one of those souls haha
Tom Harari
@5harath @yuriyyarovoy Saving souls, taking names.
