Notes are only synced if "Sync to Daily Notes" is selected #7

If I don't have "Sync to Daily Notes" checked, my highlights will sync, but not the notes. When this option is checked, the daily notes page gets populated with a set of block references linking back to the notes in the main article page, AND the notes appear as child blocks.

Hey @abehr, this was a decision I made in collaboration with the Roam team. I'm not a Roam power user in my day-to-day (trying to pick it up), so I deferred to the experts. I think their basic explanation was that notes feel more like something you would want to expand on in your daily notes as opposed to in the "Source Material" of the article page.

I'm happy to revisit this decision. But, for the moment, I'm getting conflicting reports of people liking it and not liking it. I'll make a note of this as I make improvements to the extension.
