Adriana Talhero (ID: 000000cc7c610e2d) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/15/2023 "hypothes.is precisa revisar a segurança da sua conexão antes de prosseguir"... e já faz 5 horas

Emma O (ID: 00000072c49eb358) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/04/2023 Useless social media-ized antonation tool. You literally cannot even antonate or highligth local files without creating an account. Dev needs to clearly state their niche on app page, because this was a waste of 20 mins of my life

Yusuf Umac (ID: 000000878ae259a8) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/10/2023 Great app but my chrome extension keeps logging out way too frequently somehow. Every time I want to add a bookmark, I've to go through the singin flow again which is really frustrating. I've added the exception to allow cookies from the extension as well but using an add blocker, maybe that's why.

eric ingerson (ID: 000000fa55642599) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 09/04/2023 This is a "social" annotation tool. Which is a weird thing. It makes your annotations public (for some reason) by default and accidental clicks show you every other user's annotations (for some reason). Collaboration makes sense, but this vast social media approach is bizarre and distracting, and it seems this is mostly a social media ap for discussing articles with every other user. The steps to make things private are unintuitive and awkward, and the labels in this regard are contradictory (eg your annotation will say "public" but with a lock icon, which means it's in a public sphere, but locked from view. Disconcerting.) There are other similar aps without the social media aspect whose features are similar.

melissa flores (ID: 000000e84025c285) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 05/02/2023 I wish it had a underlining feature, because personally for me underlining and highlighting are two different methods of annotating for me so i think it'll be a perfect addition to the extension
