    This great extension allows you to copy selected text or an entire page as Markdown to the clipboard. You can also download a page or selection as a Markdown file.

    As Microsoft decided not to offer OneNote Web Clipper on Firefox anymore (without valid reason, as it worked perfectly), I decided to switch my personal notes to Obsidian and use this extension to replace the OneNote Web Clipper.

    4 stars instead of 5, because I think there is still room for improvement (UX-wise). But nevertheless I can warmly recommend this.

    Thanks to the developer! ❤️

    I love this addon but in the newest version (3.3.0), the "copy selection as Markdown" does not work anymore. Nothing is copied to the clipboard. I have rolled back to the previous version (3.2.1) in the meantime. I hope this can be fixed. I am running on Windows 10 if that makes any difference.

    It's a great add-on. But it will be better if you can specify the folder to download.
    (I want to download directly to a folder directly under Obsidian)

    I really, really wish I could build this feature. It would be so useful, I agree!
    Unfortunately, it's a security thing that developers aren't able to do anything like that...

    Its size is suspicious 8.32 MB, while other similar extensions range in kilobytes. Also it doesn't have an open license.

    The source is available on github for you to inspect. I don't collect any information at all, it's all local (but I guess that's what an actual bad actor would say also). The size is just because I haven't really optimised anything (I guess I should at least minify as part of my build process).
    It's got an Apache license inherited from the previous extension I forked from, and honestly it's just something I haven't paid attention to. I'm open to making it more permissible.
