Clip X (Twitter) articles and threads into your Obsidian vault as clean Markdown with properties — in one click.
Prefer files? Download Markdown and drop it into your vault, or ZIP + images to keep images offline in an images/ folder next to the note.
Every note gets title, author, source, published, saved, type (article, thread or post) and tags.
With Dataview you can list everything you saved from X:
TABLE author, published, type
FROM #x
SORT saved DESCGeneric clippers struggle with X: the page needs a login, the content loads dynamically and threads are split across many posts. Xtracticle reads the post data directly, so X Articles keep their headings and lists and threads arrive as one note.
On any post, change x.com to xtracticle.com in the address bar and press Enter: x.com/user/status/123 → xtracticle.com/user/status/123. The post opens here, ready to download.
Drag this button to your bookmarks bar, then click it while reading any X post: ⬇ Xtracticle
On Android you can also install Xtracticle (Add to Home screen) and share posts to it straight from the X app.
Add the Xtracticle shortcut to the Shortcuts app, then in the X app tap Share → Xtracticle. Run from the Home Screen, it opens the link on your clipboard.
Obsidian must be installed on this device. The Markdown is also copied to your clipboard, so you can paste it into any note.

Download ZIP + images and extract it into your vault. The Markdown links point to the local images folder.
