EH. Milon (ID: 00000049ae6168e1) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/05/2023 Joplin web clipper is so problematic. It doesn't work as I expect. I thought it will work as Evernote Web Clipper, but I am disappointed. It's need lot of enhancement. The web clipper defends on Desktop application. if you want to use this extension you have to run the application in background. If you want to use this extension on an android device (kiwi, Firefox nightly) you can't.
