#162I use an extension called histre, https://histre.com/ for annotation and keeping up with _notes_ / _thoughts_ inline. I found that using tools like Fermat's Library, which provides side bar annotation, histre for inline highlight, annotation and multi-references, and ChatGPT to understand complex terms, all helped with understand recent papers. Even a medical journal paper, https://senthil.learntosolveit.com/posts/20…
I tried Google Scholar after this comment. Google Scholar PDF is a valuable addition to the research community. There isn't any tool that can give direct hyperlink to the references in the research paper, and this does it, as inline hover, and it is incredibly useful to navigate and follow the references.

#163Does anyone have a research paper reading tool they're happy with? Zotero is what meets most of my needs but I wish I could organize the papers faster and I wish the annotation tools were better. AI-assisted reading is a plus too.
evince recently added some features that I now find it hard to live without. The biggest is that if I mouseover an internal link in a pdf, it shows a little preview of where that link would take me - so if I'm reading a long document and the author says "by Theorem 3.3 it holds..." and if the pdf is recent enough for "Theorem 3.3" to be an internal link, then I can mouseover to remind myself of the statement of Theorem 3.3!

That seems really useful, thank you!

Do you know if there's a way to write latex comments in Zotero / Mendeley? It's something I've been looking for.
Did you check the `zotero-better-notes`? [1] > LaTex math in Zotero note is no longer a dream. The `zotero-better-notes` addon now supports this feature! [1]: https://github.com/windingwind/zotero-better-notes
Thanks for that :)
