| sqlite3 $HOME/Library/Safari/History.db "select datetime(visit_time + 978307200, 'unixepoch', 'localtime') as date, title from history_visits order by visit_time asc" |
Yeah. Works. Thanks a lot :D
Works well but doesn't show url unfortunately. Url is in another table I think
Might be useful for someone: you can view the history visually in a GUI like https://sqlitebrowser.org/dl/
It's the same file in the command line: /Users/your_user_name/Library/Safari/History.db
Hope this helps someone.
thanks microsoft copilot for writing a script that takes account for profiles (they have separate history): https://gist.github.com/mailinglists35/3957a8096a3fe03daced8df3d06355f1

Hi @ @lindeskar,
Sorry for the stupid question, where do I run your code to see the time stamp for the safari browser?
Thanks in advance!
