A few days ago, I discovered the [URL text fragment](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/URI/Fragment/Text_fragments) feature ([my note about this in french](https://notes.sklein.xyz/2024-12-06_1617/zen/)). Since then, I’ve been using the Firefox extension “[Link to Text Fragment](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/link-to-text-fragment/)” to share specific links, and I find it very easy to use.

I did identify Silverbullet’s [Anchors](https://silverbullet.md/Markdown/Anchors) feature for linking to a specific position on a SilverBullet internal page.

**I wonder if SilverBullet could take advantage of the “URL text fragment” standard 🤔.**

I can imagine a syntax like `[[MyPage#:~:text=foobar]]`.

For now, I’m struggling to imagine the advantages/disadvantages of this feature idea compared to using “Anchors”.

I’ve looked to see if Obsidian supports _URL text fragments_, and find that it doesn’t.  
Obsidian’s equivalent of _Anchors_ seems to be [Link to a block in a note](https://help.obsidian.md/Linking+notes+and+files/Internal+links#Link+to+a+block+in+a+note).

What’s your feeling about this?
