At least they do it properly; as a site.
Your extension only works on Chrome, and it is for a feature that is not used commonly. There is no good reason to install it on a web browser.
Installing it in a browser is also a threat that the extension might do more than just scanning sites, and even if it doesn't affect privacy it still encourages installing extra junk on web browsers.
- jijosunny 9y agoWe started with extension as developers/designers found it especially handy for a quick look-up while working on their projects. Not to worry though - we're working on something for the web as well! ️ BTW WhatRuns works on all major browsers.
- takeda 9y agoI only see Chrome buttons on the site.
- jijosunny 9y agoThat is if you access from Chrome. Please head over to our 'Download' page for Firefox: https://www.whatruns.com/downloads/ https://www.whatruns.com/downloads/ We haven't publicised other extensions due to lack of demand.
- takeda 9y agoI'm on firefox and just checked it sends proper user agent (for firefox 55)
- dbrgn 9y agoThe extension does not seem to work on Firefox for Android, even though it's installable.
- nedt 9y agoI don't see how it'll work on any browser on iOS.
- iiv 9y agoTheir's also works as a site. For example https://www.whatruns.com/website/minecraft.net https://www.whatruns.com/website/minecraft.net. But as far as I know you would have to write that manually, without a web-interface.
- takeda 9y agoWhich make things look even worse. If all the extension does is just redirect to that page, why is it even needed?
- jijosunny 9y agoExtensions show you all the technologies used on a website. It does not redirect you to this page. However, if you click on a particular technology from the extension, you'll be taken to the respective tech's page which has a small description and list of websites using it. We hope this is useful.
- blazespin 9y agoYeah, how dare you make something free and give great and useful information in return for a bit of client gathered data.
- jijosunny 9y agoHaha, we're truly sorry!
