The app seamlessly [[posts/sync-fleeting-notes-with-obsidian|syncs]] with Obsidian through a plugin and has a quick interface for taking notes and building connections. In addition, it supports the one feature you'd expect from a web clipper. Which is highlighting text directly from the web and automatically storing the source URL.
