i take notes on my laptop, i don't have an external monitor and most of my classes use panopto videos since all lectures have been online for a year. this extension has saved my ass and given me a really good and easy way to take notes. i don't love the main page design but it is great with videos and there are many useful shortcuts. it's a little buggy but customer support is great and super responsive. i'm a broke student and i wish unlimited notebooks were free but i will probably end up exporting my notes before next semester so i can keep using it.
