The official Obsidian Web Clipper is *almost* exactly what I need, but is a narrow miss. 😕 obsidian.md/clipper

Up until now I've used Markdownload and then copied the resulting files into Obsidian, which is more clunky than the new clipper, but it has one important feature: it downloads images. I clip articles not only to help me find them again, but also to protect against web rot, but the official clipper links to web versions of the images. I don't trust those not to randomly go away.

obsidian.mdObsidian Web ClipperHighlight and capture web pages in your favorite browser. Save anything and everything with just one click.

Unfortunately Obsidian doesn't seem to have a way to convert those to local images, automatically on clipping or even very easily manually afterwards. So for that reason I'll be sticking to Markdownload until they add that as an option.

@kepano OK, the fact that it was mentioned suggested a long lead time - but I've solved this via a plugin for now anyway so all good. Thanks!
