I highlighted a quote from a website, and it shared through iOS share sheet to nostr:nprofile1qqsraldwhvwcjgltmxwfu7kw8dqef2692yhzheuurd7k3kfy8cxjdqgpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpr9mhxue69uhhq7tjv9kkjepwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5klh2fe.

Any other app does the highlighted feature?
This is a new feature to me.

Inside a share extension on iOS you can extract the original HTML and CSS. Maybe Damus parses the html from the note and displays it in a web view?
I do similar things in nostr:nprofile1qqsdcsnzjwyfc0pgtspupdm5zzu09mx04m4jwvcalyq7cg44jju74xqpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqfxwaehxw309ahx7umxd3shyefwwfhhjctvvashyar9wgh8wmmjddjhyuewv3jhvvf6032 Contex.st
Highlights are a separate event kind. Kind 9802, specifically. Not all clients support all event kinds, nor should they.
That said, I think it makes sense for major kind 1 clients like Primal to also support highlights, as people naturally want to share quotes they found interesting with their followers and spark discussion around them without their followers needing a separate app to see the highlight.
Highlights are also really nice to use within a long-form article. I think I have a highlight in one of my articles. I wonder how Primal reads handles it...
Highlighter.com also supports highlights, as does Amethyst on Android.
Ha! Not well, apparently...
This is from my article with a highlight quoting a paragraph from an article by nostr:nprofile1qqsf03c2gsmx5ef4c9zmxvlew04gdh7u94afnknp33qvv3c94kvwxgsppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyvhwumn8ghj76rzwghxxmmjv93kcefwwdhkx6tpdshsc8fae9 as displayed by Primal:



🤷🏽
That’s outside my area of expertise. lol
I agree!
I like the way highlights are presented. It’s easier to share the quote by highlighting instead of taking a screenshot then sharing.
I just learned about it as I was perusing the share sheet. I was trying to share a passage.
