SaveToMD

Save LinkedIn posts as clean markdown files. One click. No account. No cloud. No telemetry.

SaveToMD turns every LinkedIn post into a clean markdown file with one click. — Hover any post on linkedin.com and a small "Save as MD" button appears next to the three-dots menu. — Click it. The post is written to your Downloads folder as a .md file with YAML frontmatter (author, URL, date, engagement, media, hashtags). — Or press Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + S to save the post you're hovering — no mouse needed. WHAT GETS CAPTURED • Author name, profile URL, and headline • Full post body (including text hidden behind "see more") • Posted-at timestamp • Engagement counts at capture time (reactions, comments, reposts) • Media URLs — images, videos, and document-carousel slides • Hashtags, written into the file's tags: frontmatter • Repost chain — original author + reposter both recorded WHAT YOU CAN CONFIGURE • Filename template with {date}, {author}, {slug}, {post-id} tokens • Subfolder under Downloads (default: SaveToMD/<author>/<date>-<slug>.md) • Hover-only or always-visible button • Save to file OR copy markdown to clipboard • Toggle engagement metrics on/off PRIVACY SaveToMD makes zero network requests of its own. There is no server, no account, no analytics, no telemetry, no third-party SDKs. Your settings are stored locally in your browser. Posts you save go straight to your local Downloads folder. That's it. PERMISSIONS • storage — to persist your six preferences on your device • downloads — to write the markdown file to your Downloads folder • access to linkedin.com — the script that reads post content only runs on LinkedIn WHY MARKDOWN Markdown is durable, plain-text, and works with every note app worth using — Obsidian, Bear, Logseq, VS Code, Notion (via import), or just a folder full of files. Build a personal library of the posts that taught you something, without depending on LinkedIn's UI to find them later.
