    https://github.com/zendegani/tweet2md/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md
    
    Key features:
    
    - Three ways to trigger: toolbar popup, inline download button on every tweet's action bar, or right-click context menu (Save / Copy as Markdown / Add to Obsidian)
    - Copy Markdown to clipboard, download as a file, or hand off to Obsidian
    - One-click Add to Obsidian button — opens Obsidian via the obsidian:// URI scheme with the rendered Markdown prefilled; optional vault name to target a specific vault
    - Optional vault subfolder for the Obsidian handoff so notes land inside a specific folder (e.g. Tweets or Inbox/Tweets) — leave blank to use the vault root
    - Obsidian-friendly frontmatter (opt-in): wikilinked [[@handle]] author for instant backlinks, synthesized title, published/created date split, prose description snippet, and a tags array — plus all the existing engagement metadata for Dataview queries
    - Capture link cards from tweets: title, source domain, and the Open Graph preview image
    - Full support for long-form X Articles (formerly Notes) with headings, lists, and code blocks
    - Extract tweets, nested threads, and quote tweets into clean Markdown
    - Preserve quoted-post structure and context — including the original author's name and handle
    - Multi-view popup: primary actions stay focused up front, set-once preferences live in a Settings panel behind a gear icon
    - Show or hide the inline button via a toggle if it conflicts with another extension's icon
    - Inline button can be configured to copy to clipboard instead of download
    - Optional auto-close of new tabs opened via the inline button or context menu after export
    - Download embedded X media locally alongside your md file to prevent link rot
    - Optional Downloads subfolder so Markdown files and images land inside a chosen subfolder of your Downloads folder, instead of cluttering the root
    - Rich YAML frontmatter with author, handle, date, source URL, content type, and engagement stats (likes, reposts, replies, bookmarks, views)
    - Optional X-style engagement row directly in the Markdown body (likes, reposts, replies, bookmarks, views) — toggle independently of the YAML frontmatter
    - Automatically expand truncated posts and strip engagement buttons, follow prompts, and trackers
    - Multi-language UI: English, Spanish, German, French, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazil), Chinese (Simplified), Arabic, and Persian. Content extraction works on any language regardless of UI translation
    - Light and dark mode popup, matching your system preferences
    
    Great for:
    
    - Importing X content into Obsidian, Notion, Logseq, Hugo, or any Markdown-based PKM system
    - Exporting clean text for LLM prompts, RAG pipelines, or AI training workflows
    - Archiving research threads, news references, and long-form articles offline
    - Building a searchable Second Brain from your Twitter/X activity
    - Preparing source material for writing, translation, or summarization
    
    Why use it:
    
    - One-click workflow from any tweet, thread, or article page — popup, inline icon, or right-click menu
    - First-class Obsidian path: hit Add to Obsidian and the note lands in your vault, no plugin or sync setup required
    - Clean, well-structured Markdown output that is easy to edit and index
    - Local image archiving so your saved content never has broken links
    - Zero-API architecture — works directly in your browser with no API keys or accounts
    - Processes everything locally on your device. No analytics, no tracking, no data leaves your machine.
    
    Current limitations:
    
    - Focused on x.com content extraction
    - Videos and GIFs are not exported as playable media files
    - Requires a page reload if the extension was installed or updated after opening the tab. This is intentional to avoid silent failures and ensure content is extracted reliably from a properly initialized page.
    - Some content may stop working if x.com changes its page structure significantly

    Why use it:

    Current limitations:
    
    - Focused on x.com content extraction
    - Videos and GIFs are not exported as playable media files
    - Requires a page reload if the extension was installed or updated after opening the tab. This is intentional to avoid silent failures and ensure content is extracted reliably from a properly initialized page.
    - Some content may stop working if x.com changes its page structure significantly
    
    This is an open-source project.
