• Ask HN: Is there a tool / product that enables commenting on HTML elements?

  Yes. Only one solving the problem very very well right now. Memex - https://getmemex.com More generally the open annotations standard is meant to address this use case. Older, now obselete tools like hypothes.is, and peerlibrary* laid a lot of the groundwork. https://github.com/peerlibrary/peerlibrary. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Raindrop.io's Firefox extension was removed!

  Hmm.. Probably Wallabag, But I prefer MemeX because it has less trackers and works well for me. Source: about 2 years ago

• What are some good extensions and windows apps which can be helpful to the categorization of websites, bookmarked, and web apps in tile style layout?

  Check out Memex (https://getmemex.com/) or wallbag (https://www.wallabag.org/en). They're both free and open-source. Source: over 2 years ago

• Is Firefox Primary Password safe?

  If you're interested in saving bookmarks and such, I'd probably go off with something like Memex (https://getmemex.com/) or Floccus (https://floccus.org/). I haven't really used them but, I've looked a bit into them and they're free and open-source. Source: over 2 years ago

• Suggestions for a good PDF reader for Mac for use with Obsidian

  For pdf annotations on Windows I use Foxit reader, on Android acrobat reader. For highlighting web-content (pdfs, articles) I'm still looking for a good solution but will maybe stick to Memexor hypothesis. On iOS there's Command Browser (one time purchase) I already use and love for webcontent- and they have Android on their roadmap too.. If that's the case I know where I belong ;).

• Managing Your Personal Journal Article Library

  Https://paperpile.com/ I used to use this one and liked it a lot but I was paying money for it - not a lot of money. It will let you insert references in papers. Paperpile connects to your google drive to store your papers. It has a good search engine to find similar articles. Source: about 1 year ago

• Reading/annotating papers using Paperpile

  I'm using Paperpile (https://paperpile.com/) currently on my iPad Pro and Mac to do this, and it syncs to my Google Drive. My question: with Remarkable2 can I just annotate directly on the PDFs stored on my Google Drive and expect everything just works? I.e., no disruption on Paperpile side (since it just saves the modified PDF files to Google Drive) and my annotations just magically show up when I open the paper... Source: about 1 year ago

• Bibliography management software

  Paperpile (https://paperpile.com/) is my go to. It has Google Docs (and Drive!) integration too. Source: about 1 year ago

• Im a new 1st year PhD candidate starting Monday… I would really appreciate any tips or things you wish you had known at the beginning of your PhD. I have worked with my supervisor before so have a pretty good relationship although I am not naive to the fact this will change over time.

  Citation manager, keep a regular schedule, stay fit and use tools that help you - paperpile.com curvenote.com. Source: over 1 year ago

• What's the best option for citations + file in Logseq, without cloud access?

  Yup, it's a great feature. The app itself is too fiddly for me, I had trouble managing my duplicates. Since I am writing mostly in gdocs, I am keeping my literature in https://paperpile.com . They offer all the integration you could ever want and native citing into Word, gdocs and logseq via link. I chose it primarily due to its good iPad app and integration. Totally worth the few bucks.
