Link Drop — Bookmarklet Installation

Link Drop lets you save any webpage as a link in a dedicated RSS feed using a browser bookmarklet.

Installation

1. Go to Link Drop in the sidebar

2. Create a list (e.g., "Morning Scan", "Tech Reads")

3. Install the bookmarklet using one of these methods:

Method A — Drag to bookmarks bar (easiest):

  • Show your bookmarks toolbar by pressing Ctrl+Shift+B (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+Shift+B (Mac)
  • Drag the colored button from the Link Drop page onto the bookmarks toolbar
  • Click the bookmark on any page to save the link

Method B — Manual install (works in all browsers):

  • Click the "Copy bookmarklet code" link below the colored button
  • Open your browser's bookmarks manager (Ctrl+Shift+O)
  • Create a new bookmark
  • Give it a name (e.g., "Save to RSSFlux")
  • Paste the copied code into the URL field
  • Save

Browser Notes

| Browser | Bookmark bar shortcut | Notes |

|---|---|---|

| Chrome / Edge / Brave / Vivaldi | Ctrl+Shift+B | If the bookmarklet is blocked, disable Shields (Brave) or ensure HTTPS is not forcing redirects |

| Firefox | Ctrl+Shift+B | Right-click the bookmarks toolbar area → "Bookmarks Toolbar" → "Always Show" |

| Safari | Cmd+Shift+B | Enable "Show Bookmarks" from the View menu |

Usage

Click the bookmarklet on any page. You'll see a brief confirmation page, then be redirected back to the original page. The link is saved to your chosen list's RSS feed.
