First off, I think the project is super cool and awesome that you made it open source and I just stumbled upon it!

This feature request is sort of two pronged. Need to dive into your code a bit more, but it would be really cool to share your highlighted page with others. Not sure how possible it is if you are just storing everything locally.

Second thing is, I often feel most users skim articles, but I'd imagine most of your user base actually reads through articles. Why not offer users summarized articles based on the keywords and sentence structures they highlight - it could be a pretty simple model - not sure if you are analyzing this data already but could be interesting!

Thanks for the comments!
It would be possible share highlights if I store the highlights as part of the URL, but the person you are sending this to would need to have the extension installed too. I think this is a good idea!

As for the automatic summary feature, I never considered it. I'll be releasing something soon which will allow copy-pasting all highlights on a page in 1 click. This should help if you then want to use another tool to generate an automatic summary from this data, but I don't think it's in the scope of this project to implement that feature
