Only export annoations to Readwise if they belong to an highlight

I'm super happy that memex supports exporting to Readwise, but I have one little (?) wish to make it work even better for me:

  • For me, the most important part of a Readwise "card" is the quoted highlight. I review these regularily, through Readwise directly and through third party apps like Napkin

  • memex allows us to add notes to a URL indepenent of a highlight. This is great, and I like to use it

  • But these annotations are exported to Readwise as "empty" highlights with an annotation. This makes no sense for me to appear in a review of highlights

  • Personally, I'd prefer to just not have annoations without highlights exported to Readwise at all. After all, Readwise is the central hub for highlights.

    • Of course, I don't know if other people like it that way, so I'd be happy with an option to disable export of annotations without highlights

    @klickreflex I implemented this and will go out with the next release (which is right now in review)

    Now there will be an option in the readwise settings to enable that.
