Ankit Singhaniya (ID: 0000007cfbf3ebcf) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 06/06/2022 I've a Slite account but as soon as I hit save the notes are removed from my new tab. Instead if there's a way for me to keep saving it and infact sync it across machines that will be huge.

Antoine Banctel-Chevrel (ID: 000000b232c437cf) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 01/21/2022 I was a fan of the Papier before it was discontinued, and I was happy to see Slite providing a replacement with Draft, so thank you Slite 🙏 I'm a heavy user, I can't work without it. My only issues : sometime the app is slow when there is a lot of text, and sometime copy/paste is totally messed up. Looking forward for the next extension update !
