Good job for following the W3C Annotation standard!
- 0b01 10y agoThanks for checking it out. txtpen differs from hypothesis in 2 aspects. 1. Full publisher control. Publishers can moderate and pin highlights on their sites. However, all annotations can be retrieved via RESTful API as per W3C standards. 2. Only pick the best highlights to value add the reader. Otherwise annotation is nothing more than digital graffiti. Also, we strive to be the best annotation service out there. The load speed is within 150ms compared to 2080ms of hypothesis. And we plan to cut that by half to within 60ms which is below perception threshold. The experience will be magical.
