omni VS kindle2notion

https://github.com/alyssaxuu/omni - for self-organization and optional browsing through your bookmarks in a familiar way (if you like Cmd+K spotlight search bar a common pattern in many modern applications, this is for you!)

That hotkey is very cool to have, no questions asked but i was already using omni which does the same thing so i couldn't see the appeal to switch to it just because of that.

I find a better solution with this two extensions omni and vimium

Hey hey!

This weekend I hacked together a quick command bar for Google Calendar. There are so many "Superhuman for Calendar" startups, but I don't really care about anything except the ⌘-k bar, so I just built a really good implementation myself.

It's already a way better Command Bar than most existing command bars from Superhuman or Raycast because it uses a LLM to do some of the parsing.

I did the overlay using a Chrome extension [1]. So I called it "Lui" (Language User Interface) and I'm going to make it work for more sites like Webflow, Mixpanel, Typeform and even Jira. What Lui's do you want to see?

My ambition is to make the web as wonderful to use as the terminal (once you've learned it, of course). But there's a reason GUI killed DOS, it's just super unforgiving. I think my Lui fixes that problem.

Chrome has yet to approve my app so you can't download it yet but if you put in your email I'll send you the `dist` so you can load it unpacked. I'm also consider open-sourcing some of it if people are interested, since I can't possibly build all the Lui's myself so other people should.

Omni - This is technically not an app - it's a Chrome extension; basically gives you the equivalent of Spotlight within Chrome, allowing you to do a bunch of things without ever having to touch the trackpad

Does instapaper have HN formatting service now (or) do you manually send HN story through it? 'Send to Kindle' extension of Amazon can do the same if anyone is looking for a free option, But 'HN to Kindle' formats the HN page and sends as a book.

Before Obsidian, I tried 'Kindle 2 Notion'[1] to sync My clippings.txt from Kindle to notion, But Notion is too heavy for my liking, I don't use it for any other purpose.

Obsidian is built upon self-hosting principles, The obsidian-kindle-plugin referenced in the post is useful for anyone to self-host a read-wise type setup.

My favorite part about ebooks, and specifically Amazon is that you can flip through your highlights. I will highlight parts of a book I really enjoyed and sometimes write personal notes about them as I read.

I enjoy going back and spending 15-30 minutes going through my highlights and notes on books I previously read and re-reading sections around highlights. It brings back a surprising amount of memories and emotions from the book that get lost over time. Now Amazon lets you read these with read.amazon.com and offers some export features. The export features are still not perfect, but are better than they were.

I also like the sheer number of books I can keep on my Kindle and they don't take up physical space in my home. I don't want hundreds of books stacked up that i read once. So instead I find that I read on Kindle first. Then if I REALLY enjoy the book, I will purchase a physical copy for my bookshelf. So my bookshelf becomes a physical embodiment of my curated favorites.

Here is the tool I use to get highlights and notes off my Kindle and onto Notion, which allows multi-device syncing and web-access to my notes and private storage.
