a few fix ups

so Ive been playing around with this tool for several hours now, getting a feel for how it could be incorporated into my PKM workflow before I actually commit, can I get your feedback on these

  • the search seems to be terrible. are you guys working on that?

  • on the android app, as Im browsing the web, I try sharing a selected text to memex. it doesnt work

  • when I launch the app, I would like to immediately see a search and sort by option. my preference is to see things by most recently updated

  • on shared pages, can you add the sorting feature

  • on shared pages, can you add the option to have the annotation notes to the side of the screen like how it is on the extension dashboard. this view is helpful when to keep the video constant while I can navigate through the notes

  • half the image URLs are not working when I try pasting on to the image insert on the note.

  • will the extension dashboard also eventually be web based?

  • this thing interrupts while I used it try to take note all the way on the bottom on mobile web page. can you adjust it ( screenshot )

    First of all, thank you so much for the thorough feedback!

    On your points:

    • Search terrible: Great timing we are actually about to put some extensive work on it. What are the specific things that didnt work?
      What we're improving:

      • Fuzzy search

      • Better filters (hasAnnotations)

      • More performance for content types

      • All results in the same view (especially pages/annotations which are now unecessarily separated)

    • on the android app, as Im browsing the web, I try sharing a selected text to memex. it doesnt work

      • That is unfortunately not possible due to limitations of the way the "share to" on the browser works. You first have to open the page via the "share to memex" and then annotate it

    • when I launch the app, I would like to immediately see a search and sort by option. my preference is to see things by most recently updated

      • Search is about to come to mobile too! Though the items in the list should be sorted by recently saved, though not recently updated.

    • on shared pages, can you add the sorting feature

      • You mean in the web interface with the list or the web interface for individually shared pages? What do you want to sort there, pages and annotations or only one of them?

    • half the image URLs are not working when I try pasting on to the image insert on the note.

      • Is that in the web shared page or in the extension? What is the exact steps you are taking there?

    • will the extension dashboard also eventually be web based?

      • Yes we are slowly but steadily working towards that

    • this thing interrupts while I used it try to take note all the way on the bottom on mobile web page. can you adjust it ( screenshot )

      • Will fix it!
