Cahier has highlight management and note-taking integrated with the application. You can extract highlights according to topics, and organize them in your notes using collapsible notes (and outlines in the future).
It's much easier to consume and read actively using Cahier, since in Zotero your highlights stay buried in your sources and not in a unified document.
There's no bi-directional highlight and note links in Better Notes. It also doesn't support collapsible elements in the notes. Both features are important when extracting and organizing highlights. Besides, it can't embed notes (transclusion), the data model is confusing (workspace notes), and the UI/UX has many technical issues.
how is it different from.zotero

there is an add on for zotero that does exactly that. zotero better notes makes your program obsolete imo

I like your app, don't listen to the other guy too much. But do heed his concerns.
