I can't go back to the regular YouTube UI after this 😅 Obsidian Reader now makes the transcript interactive so you can scrub, highlight, auto-scroll. It feels so nice.

Great work, as usual! Would you have a good template to capture the transcripts? Mine has been broken for weeks and I can't figure how to fix it 😑

I love that house so much. I watch that video at least once a month

this is so clever. the best reading tools collapse the distance between "watching" and "thinking" — friction gone, brain engaged. love it.

interactive transcripts are so underrated. being able to jump straight from a highlighted snippet to the exact moment in the video is how video should've always worked for note-takers.

this is the kind of detail that makes a reader actually replace the native app instead of just augmenting it. interactive transcripts turn passive video into a capture surface — seriously impressive.

Interactive transcripts are part of Obsidian Web Clipper 1.4 The update is now available on Chrome and Safari. Firefox is a bit slower to approve updates. obsidian.md/clipper

one thing I would as for the already brilliant reading mode is an easier "exit" button. It requires some thinking before I can think of how to exit the reader mode when the website doesn't work well in the mode~ Again, thanks for the excellent work!!
