Readwise in 9.6

FWIW, I find the “Official” Readwise plugin in Obsidian to be reliable because, of course, Readwise built it themselves. I then use the Tinderbox File > Watch > Folder From Finder feature to watch the Articles, or Books, folder that Readwise creates. This method is always reliable. Since Obsidian is free, and the plugin is free, there’s no extra cost burden.

Agree with Paul, this is what I use as well. As an added bonus, if you index your .md files in Devonthink, you get all of Devonthink’s superpowers.

I use Tinderbox AFTER Devonthink in my workflow, unless I am just randomly brainstorming a hot topic.

I’ll look into this; it might take a week or so, owing to being at the wrong end of route 1. It should be FAR easier in 10 than it was in 9.6.

Are you getting the xml payload?

@eastgate

Are you getting the xml payload?

For me, pressing the stamp “Load” results in the message “Starting Readwise import”, and then nothing. No payload.

a bit late to the party, but was an update to the Readwise importer?

thanks!

I was distracted by the Hypertext Conference, and will return to finish this presently.

[robodean (Dean Lewis)]

How was the conference ?

Outstanding! Also distracting. @satikusala, @echuck and others have been working on new tech for packaging libraries like this, so I’ve let this slide while that experiment proceeds. I’ve not forgotten.
