Hi, thanks I did not know Readwise. I signed up for an account to check how it works. It uses a browser extension to sync the highlights instead of using the API. It can sync automatically but your browser must stay open (which is OK IMHO). Readwise can sync much more sources also.
Thanks for introducing me to Readwise, I might use it :)
That said, this suggestion and it’s method of avoiding direct interaction, but instead using rendered content in browser is another reminder of how powerful browser extensions are.
They can also make additional requests using the user’s ip address.
Would pulling data this way also seems less likely to be a TOS issue?
Reason being that you are reading content you are manipulating or displaying in a browser “after” amazon does their own highlighting.
