Clearly vs Web Clipper

[ApplianceJunk 23]

Can't Web Clipper do the same thing Clearly does?

I'm I missing something not using Clearly?

I use both,  for reasons which include...

• unless you use Chrome's clipper,  there's frequently no 'simplified article' option,  so the Clearly treatment isn't available unless you use exactly that
• sometimes 'simplified article' doesn't cut it - but Clearly will: it'll sometimes include JPGs that clipper won't forinstance.
• since I have both extensions installed in Chrome and Firefox I'll try both options if one gives squirrely results
• I use Clearly sometimes to get the content - and then select and choose 'save selection' in clipper

Logically I'd guess Clearly will be retired at some stage when all Clippers include the same option;  for now,  it's a useful backup.

I use both Clearly and Web Clipper to different ends. I set up Clearly to clip directly into my "Read Later" notebook; I use Clearly to clip things I want to read later. I use Web Clipper for everything else, and what I clip using Web Clipper goes into my default notebook.
