Usless

Couldn’t even do what it was made to do.

Perfect!

Works perfectly as intended

非常好

有好的文章能迅速的剪到obsidian里,很方便。

Never works

Never worked on Lockdown Mode. Even turned off in the browser.

Total game changer for my workflow.

I use it every day for note taking in Obsidian and cannot go back without it now.

There is a little bit of a learning curve with understanding different variables but it is so worth taking the time to set it up for your needs.

The community templates and Obsidian help guides are really helpful!

One thing I do wish is that we could easily select which folder to save the note, like the dropdown option for the vaults.

It helps you organize your digital information within your personal knowledge base.

How does the web clipper integrate with Obsidian?

The clipper seamlessly sends all your saved clips directly into your chosen Obsidian vault and folder. The content is saved as clean, durable Markdown files, ensuring no proprietary lock-in and easy portability. This integration makes it effortless to incorporate web research and inspiration into your existing Obsidian notes.

Can I save specific parts of a webpage?

This allows you to curate precisely what you need for your notes.

How does the app handle data privacy and ownership?

The Obsidian Web Clipper is designed with privacy and data control as core principles.
