At the moment, there is a toggle switch between own proxy and direct (requiring CORS Unblock extension,) but really having multiple methods can work. Other mentions were using a CloudFlare worker proxy (needing Cloudflare account and Node.j

I like the idea. I am building an RSS reader and like the idea of being able to tie articles back to verified individuals who have a crypto address and contact information. Even having encoded images would be interesting. "Oh, that&#x

It's a good idea. Also just getting the top few comments of a video grants ketchup without any inference. Have you seen DeepMark... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49288896 ? Looks well done - people may bookmark

Great idea, I just mentioned an idea for a site "thereisanHTMLforthat" [ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49425010 ] Maybe you could host/archive such single pages for other people, especially if there was

Good point. GlassBox also appears as single page. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49421948 I am working on an RSS reader that is also single page and location-agnostic. Issue for me right now is CORS unblocking as that

For me the new web came about when if you wanted a website, you hired a web developer. As soon as it become DIY, without your own domain and didn't involve looking at HTML, the new web was born. Today, if you own your own domain and fi

Wouldn't mind seeing a "search inside your upvotes" thing for HN. Good idea on the whole.. could end up being implemented by the browsers themselves over time. I personally think pages themselves, if they're in the cache

There are a lot of ideas on user-script sites with regards to what people are changing on their preferred destinations using client-side scripting. I mentioned that in my previous comment.

"Gemin" I'd support an argument to bring back the "I" to computing. The gem in I. Perhaps humans need their own APIs for others to then mash-up in the way they please? For example, I think the goal is to merge all e
