- Anonymous4C54D6 7y agoThis actually looks a lot cooler than the OP. :) Edit: oh wait...chrome only
- afandian 7y agoI think it's good. It's based on open standards, has a proactive and engaged organisation behind it and, crucially, a community of users. Not to detract from the OP. (Edit: It's an open standard. There are plugins for different browsers, a web interface and API)
- hyperion2010 7y agoThere is a bookmarklet that works for firefox.
- mehdix 7y agoI stopped using it as I moved to Firefox a year ago. More important, they didn't provide a link to download my data at least in that time.
- comntr 7y agoAll the data here is actually stored in indexedDb and localStorage. I guess I'll implement import/export next time.
- comntr 7y agoThe idea is very similar, but I can't agree with a few implementation details: - The extension shouldn't need to have access to the page. Inserting an iframe into the page seems wrong. - The extension shouldn't own the comments. It should be a window to the comments, not a gatekeeper. It should be possible to implement alternative UIs and alternative extensions and connect them to the same comments. - The extension should allow to switch the UI and the data server. I like the inline annotations, but likely it'll need full access to DOM.
- afandian 7y agoI'm not intimately acquainted with the internal of hypothes.is but there is an open API, based on open standards. So you can build whatever you want with it.
