You can set your own default tags for the Web Clipper in Browser extension Settings. These can be existing tags or new ones, totally up to you! The "Ask for Tags" option is a separate feature that makes the Web Clipper prompt you for tags each time you clip something.

Can’t remember if it was in a note, a PDF, or a screenshot?
Doesn’t matter, Bear can find it. 🔍

💡 With Bear Pro, you can search text inside PDFs and images.

Bear supports sending content through Shortcuts, but whether it connects smoothly to micro.blog depends on their Shortcut actions and support. You might want to check with their team for the best setup. 🤞

#BearTips Sometimes you want all your clippings under #web, other times you want to be more specific: #health, #tech, #book.

Enable “Ask for Tags” in Bear’s Safari extension settings, and Bear will ask which tags to add each time you clip.

Find what you save, the way you remember it. 😌

My imported Obsidian notes look great with inline and display math - they have my notes from a dozen or so undergrad and postgrad courses.
