Review Summary

Users praise Web Clipper for its multi-platform support, ease of use, and advanced clipping functions, especially for note-taking apps like Notion and OneNote. The extension is appreciated for being free, open-source, and capable of handling code snippets well. However, major pain points include the lack of seamless Obsidian integration, issues with image clipping and uploads, and the compulsory account binding requirement. Users also desire better user experience features such as remembering settings, screenshot annotation, and improved UI design.

Pros

  • Supports multiple note-taking platforms including Notion, OneNote, and Flowus with reliable clipping functions.
  • Efficient and easy setup, with clean code and intelligent content selection features.
  • Free and open-source with more features than some native note-taking app clippers.
  • Good support for code recognition in clipped content.
  • Ability to upload images to third-party image hosting services (graph beds).

Cons

  • Lack of official or smooth support for Obsidian leading to difficulties and additional manual steps for users.
  • Image clipping and hosting functions have bugs or are incomplete, such as saving images only as placeholders or failure to upload images to image hosts automatically.
  • The extension requires account binding/login which some users find annoying or obstructive.
  • Missing requested features like screenshot capture and annotation capabilities.
  • User interface and user experience need improvements, including remembering last used repositories and reducing redundant steps.
