Read Bytes on Your Kindle
A twice-weekly roundup of JavaScript and web development news, written with a distinct sense of humor. By Tyler McGinnis & team.
Bytes is a quick read, but it's also one of the newsletters people let pile up in their inbox unread. Kindle delivery means it shows up somewhere you'll actually open it. Typical issue length: 600-1,000 words.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get Bytes delivered to my Kindle automatically?
Sign up for InboxToKindle and copy your unique inbox email address, then subscribe (or update your existing subscription) to Bytes using that address instead of your personal email. Every new issue is converted to EPUB and delivered to your Kindle automatically.
Can I keep reading Bytes in my regular inbox too?
Yes. Using your InboxToKindle address for Bytes doesn't cancel or change your existing subscription - it just gives you a second, Kindle-friendly copy of every issue. Many readers use the inbox address for the subscription and unsubscribe from email once they're used to reading on Kindle.
Will Bytes's formatting and images survive the conversion?
InboxToKindle converts each issue of Bytes to EPUB, preserving inline images, links, and paragraph structure while stripping tracking pixels and email chrome that don't belong on an e-reader.
Do I need a paid Bytes subscription for this to work?
No - InboxToKindle works with whatever Bytes sends to your inbox, whether that's the free tier or a paid subscription. If you're a paying subscriber, just use your InboxToKindle address for the subscription and paid issues will arrive on your Kindle exactly like free ones.
