Three pieces of news relevant for those who use Logseq for reading/note-taking/research.

1. There is now an official Readwise plugin for Logseq in the extension marketplace. For those who don’t know, Readwise is a (paid) service which will collect and sync your highlights from Kindle, Instapaper, UpNext, hypothes.is, uploaded PDFs, and several other sources. These highlights can now all be synced with your Logseq graph. More info here: https://readwise.io/changelog/logseq-integration

2. Although tight Zotero integration was one of the key selling points of Logseq from the beginning, the developers feel it will be better supported by spinning it off into a plugin. They are already working with someone who has both external funding and financial support from Logseq to do this. Nothing is released yet, but there is a forum post about it here: https://discuss.logseq.com/t/comprehensive-zotero-plugin/8571

3. For those (like myself) who don’t use Zotero, another developer is working on a plugin that will support .bib files, such as the kind generated by Paperpile. The first fully functional version of this plugin should be released later this month. You can follow development on Github: https://github.com/sawhney17/logseq-citation-manager

PS, there is also now an official Logseq newsletter, here: https://blog.logseq.com/newsletter-9-official-readwise-integration-combining-zotero-and-logseq-and-better-graph-visualizations/

I’m a long time Paperpile user, but the level of integration between note taking apps and Zotero 6 is quite amazing. Here you can see (scroll to the bottom and look at the last animated GIF) how a plugin for Obsidian is able to pull all of your PDF highlights and annotations directly into your note. The developer of the new Logseq plugin that I mentioned above is looking at this and will hopefully be adding similar functionality.
