One of the biggest pains I personally face is an inbox full of newsletters I don’t remember subscribing to.
So, I’ve been hacking on a Python script that:
Connects to Gmail via IMAP
Finds emails with “unsubscribe” links
Surfaces them in one place (thinking of making a cleaner dashboard for this later)
Right now, it just prints out the unsubscribe links from my inbox — but I’m considering turning it into a simple tool that:
Shows you all your subscriptions
Lets you click one button to unsubscribe
Works locally so you don’t have to share your login with anyone
🤔 Question for the community:
Would you use something like this?
Do you think this should stay a dev-tool/script, or be turned into a webapp?
Any feedback would be super valuable 🙌
