You should be shipping that as a browser extension. As it stands it's not good as a website, but it meets every criteria for a good extension.
It's even the kind of thing that passes for a native application in Chrome OS.
- Klathmon 10y agoBut if i shipped it as a "browser extension" i would need to make multiple versions for each browser, and it wouldn't work on most mobile devices... And even as an app it's not that good. It's very single-purpose, there aren't really any "settings" that need to be saved, an app for this would be overkill. As a website, it's quick to find on any device (desktop, laptop, phone, my damn TV!), it's extremely fast to install (if it takes more than a second to load on home internet i've done something wrong), has little to no footprint on the disk of the device, and does one thing and does it well.
