You can use a chrome extension to export your highlights to notion.

Here's the link:

Thanks for answering Nasha! I'll try it out. Also, I think the problem may be the use of pathlib on the requirements. Apparently it's not being mantained anymore, and it's encouraged to use pathlib2 (which didn't gave me errors when modifying requirements.txt to use it).

I'm using Windows 10 with Python 3.8

You're very welcome.

Apologies for only getting around to this now but please update Python to 3.9 or more for the code to work as intended.
