Show HN: A "Comments Layer" for the Internet
SwearBy is an iOS app that provides a "comments section" and live chat for every URL.
Load SwearBy in Safari, Chrome, and many other apps (Airbnb, Spotify, Redfin, Amazon...)
Just tap the "Share" button from your current page.
Basically - you get a "Twitter thread" and a "Youtube Live Chat" on every URL.
LMK what you think :)

- chrisjj 3y agoSo, Third Voice again? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Voice https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Voice
- colinjpower 3y agoHaha I hadn’t heard of this! Thanks for the heads up. I recently saw Marc Andreessen talk about “Annotations”, which he almost built for Mosaic. https://youtu.be/tV6kDr1rwTs?si=enR5QZvtHqx2nmjK&t=2796 https://youtu.be/tV6kDr1rwTs?si=enR5QZvtHqx2nmjK&t=2796 I think today - where influencers drive serious demand and online shopping is huge - this might have a better shot.. maybe not with the HN community though I did think it would be kinda cool/funny to have comments on an NCBI paper, or like Fed minutes.. it lets everyone have a voice on every webpage!
- chrisjj 3y ago> this might have a better shot.. I agree. Third Voice was a good idea at the wrong time. I don't think opposition from site owners perceiving it as defacing thier sites would carry as much weight today. But something unchanged is the spam threat. Good luck!
