Command Browser app for saving web page highlights to DttG?

Does anyone have any experience with this app?

I just downloaded it, and the app indeed makes it possibly to hightlight a webpage and then save the highlights as a markdown file in DttG. I’m still learning my way through the app and trying to find the best workflow for this, but so far it seems to be eliminating one of my biggest problems: wanting to extract just some key points from an article and to save them in Dt with a link back to the source. Normally I’ve first downloaded the article as clutter-free PDF (which often fails) and then done the highlighting in the PDF.

Here’s the original webpage and the resulting md file in Dt.

I just came across a Medium article that mentioned this technique and was wondering if you’re still using the Command Browser’s highlighting ability to get note snippets into DTTG. Are you still using it? If not, did you find a better approach?

No, didn’t stick with it. While the idea is neat, I found the whole process with an added app too fidgety in the end. Would love to have this kind of functionality within Safari/Dt combo, though.
