Dmitriy V (ID: 00000046a77c561d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/25/2023 Great note, wish it further development and success, lightweight and easy to use on the go, sync is fast and customizable.

Mahadevan Iyer (ID: 000000e692a266bc) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 10/29/2022 Good attempt. It does sync well. But it has usability issues. Like everytime I copy anything it copies it into the note. Sometimes I just want to edit the note. If I edit it, It copies the same item from the clipboard again as another note. It does not copy the formatting, just the plain text. Image has to be attached seperately. I think this is an early version, will install it again later.

Jennifer (ID: 00000006148e43b5) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/06/2022 Great extension for making fleeting notes; adding to Obsidian is easy, and works fine as the simple format or you can edit the template further to refine for your needs. I like the quick access via the toolbar instead of having to have Obsidian open to make a fleeting note.
