Can you help regarding the first request mentioned in this issue. That is text clipped using tiddyclip from a webpage should be added as child nodes of a single parent tiddler On Thu, Jun 24, 2021 at 8:29 PM Saq Imtiaz <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Walt, > > Hopefully you will get input from people actually using Streams as to what > works for them. > > One of the things I would dearly like to know is how many people are > actually using Streams on a regular basis, and what their workflow looks > like.
