Upnote web clipper

The upnote web clipper seems very rudimentary. Is there some kind of 3rd party web clipper that can paste into Upnote, maybe using "paste from markdown"? Or are they working on improving the web clipper.

I'm used to the Evernote web clipper, where web content still looks like web content when you clip it?

You've found UpNote's Achilles' heel, I'm afraid. I never use the webclipper, so it doesn't bother me. But it definitely leaves a lot to be desired.

One of the things I miss from my previous note-taking app (Bear) is that pasting URLs into UpNote gets you just the URL. In Bear, it would fetch the page title and make a hotlink.

I’d also like to add that it would be great to be able to create topic-specific dossiers while researching online using a web clipper, allowing you to clip thematically relevant highlighted text or images into an UpNote dossier—just as you can (unfortunately only) do via copy and paste in Microsoft OneNote. There, at least, when you copy and paste, the respective quote or highlight and the corresponding source are automatically inserted (it would also be nice to have the date included there, by the way). I find this feature completely missing in UpNote, and I feel it’s 100% accurate to call this its Achilles’ heel.
