Show HN: Defuddle, an HTML-to-Markdown alternative to Readability

Defuddle is an open-source library I built to extract the main content and metadata from web pages. It can also return the content as Markdown.

I built Defuddle while working on Obsidian Web Clipper[1] (also MIT-licensed) because Mozilla's Readability appears to be mostly abandoned, and didn't work well for many sites.

Defuddle is also available as a CLI:
