User reviews

Papercuts is a highly appreciated Chrome extension for note-taking and snippet management, praised for its syncing capabilities and user-friendly design. However, multiple users report critical bugs such as freezing when deleting tabs, incomplete data saving leading to data loss, and missing import/export functionality. Users also desire better hyperlink support and fixes for issues with the context menu and pasting notes. Despite these drawbacks, it remains a valuable tool for efficiently managing notes across devices.
Pros
  • Allows users to save and organize notes and snippets efficiently.
  • Syncs data across different computers and accounts.
  • User interface and design are appealing and useful.
  • Supports quick access to saved notes, improving productivity.
  • Fulfills specific needs that similar extensions do not, making it highly valuable for certain users.
Cons
  • Deleting tabs often causes the extension to freeze or malfunction, with notes moving incorrectly between tabs.
  • Issues with incomplete or improper data saving, leading to loss of data especially when restoring from backups.
  • Lack of an import/export feature for data backup and transfer.
  • Limited functionality with pasting hyperlinks within notes, reducing usefulness for some users.
  • Some bugs related to adding and pasting notes, including missing context menu options and inconsistent behavior.

I have used this Chrome Extension for years now. It is an absolute must have. The only issue I have is this. When you upload bookmarks from Chrome to Vivaldi, Papercut bookmarks do not load to the correct folder. This means you must move them manually, however Vivaldi's "Other Bookmarks" folder, where Papercut bookmarks are stored, is not visible in its built in bookmarks manager. I have solved this using another extension called "Bookmark Manager and Viewer".

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Papercuts - Notes and Snippets requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
