Auto-generate thumbnail
complete
Michael Foster
When I add a new bookmark, it seems like Raindrop.io tries to generate a thumbnail but for all of my wiki pages it can't because it can't authenticate to see the pages. Other bookmark systems had a mechanism to essentially take a screen shot of the page when the thumbnail was created and optionally use that as a thumbnail...thus avoiding this problem.
For us, the thumbnails are effectively useless because they all just show an "Authentication screen".
This feature would add a lot of value to us

Add thumbnail from preview

It would be nice to apply a thumbnail from the web preview. For sites that don´t generate a proper preview due to credentials or things like that, having an option to generate a preview image from the web view inside the app would be really handy.

Screenshot as default image

I have often found that I want to manually change a bookmark's image after adding it to Raindrop, most often to the page's screenshot.
I would love the ability to have Raindrop automatically pull in a screenshot of the page and set that as the bookmark's image.
Ideally this could be configured at the Collection level.

Website screenshots instead of OG:images

I'd love a screenshot of the website I saved instead of the OG images.
(The OG images make the library look like Youtube and it's easier to remember what a page was about when I can see their actual layout.
It seems like there once was a toggle to show either/or, but that is gone (See Rustem's reply here in 20219 https://better.raindrop.io/feature-requests/p/automatically-capture-great-screenshots)
