Love it. I added one label action on my email account and it's now everything I could ask for.
Please add an icon for the Fwrdto.me link and it will be perfect! Great job, guys.

@bagel_labs Thank you! Funny to see that I have the same workflow than you!

@bagel_labs I've made some research about the icon, without success... If you have any existing bookmarklet that use one, I'll be happy to give a look!
@vp_fr I did some searching myself but couldn't find much either. It's okay though. I guess this can be easily solved when your Chrome extension comes out!
@mblode Thanks for the feedback! I did not know about this Chrome extension!
As a bookmarklet. Fwrdto.me can be added to any web browser and works on any email platform.
I don't know about the second point but I'm sure the first is a big difference :)

@vp_fr Amazing! Well done! I feel like it would be incredible for people who read newsletters in their inbox. Personally, I use Pocket to save links and I try to unsubscribe from all newsletters in my inbox. Therefore, keeping things to read later separate.
Why does it require a subscription? I've been using bookmarklets on a daily basis since the 90s (including ones for emailing links), but this is the first one I've come across that requires submitting an email address in order to see the code/script.

@tomcharde Hum, Fwrdto.me cannot guess your email address and needs it to know to which inbox to send your links? 🤔
*If you have any example of Bookmarklet that can send links to your inbox without specifying your email address I'm more than interested! :)

@vp_fr Typically they use a generic / placeholder email address in the script, and then give you instructions on how to replace that with your own.

@tomcharde Oh, I see! The bookmarklet does not contain your email address but a token, generated with your email address.
Your solution is a good one too, I didn't think it that way :) Might reconsider how I built Fwrdto.me!
Report
@vp_fr Have you submitted this to bookmarklet directories yet? (If you aren't familiar with the popular sites, I can send you links to some that I have in my bookmarks. PM me if interested.)

@tomcharde Nope, just here and on Hacker News (without much success!) :)
It would be so nice of you to share it if you feel so!
This is brilliant, I send so many emails to myself with links to webpages, this is a much nicer experience. Any chance of getting it as an extension rather than bookmarklet?

@marsh931 Thank you, glad you like it! A Chrome extension should be on its way soon :)
