Does anyone remember Third Voice? You could graffiti any website and only people who had plugin installed could see it. Why isn't there a modern alternative?
-
The content of the graffiti/comments isn't being hosted on the server of the location you're ending at. You just tie it to the url, same as it worked before. Ignore search strings and tracking tags and that's it. Nothing has changed on that end.
But if I'm on example.com/feed and I see posts [1,2,3] based on my user and whatever algorithm is there, and you're on example.com/feed and you see posts [4,5,6], how would it know? Same url, completely different content.
I guess it would work on pages that have a fixed url, like news articles.

Man it was so much fun to see the clever shit people had qs tags
My favorite was a ladder texture

I recommend pasting this into TamperMonkey to have the Hypothesis controls display on every page.
Neat, thanks.

It still works and I still use it. Every so often I even run into other people's public comments in the wild.

Here, I created a group for lemmy discussions! Hah.

The internet got way more complicated since then with all the dynamically loaded and generated content. I don't think the plugin would work very well these days.

Never heard of it, but I was into pmog/the nethernet instead which was kinda similar but I more exploration oriented

A plugin that just checks to see if Lemmy has any posts pointing to the current URL would be pretty nice. So I can go and get secondary opinions if I want.
Not sure how much stress that would put on servers though. I guess probably not that much if searches can just be exact matches on URLs.

Have you ever done any technical work with "AI"?

I'd love this. Maybe a filter for subscribed communitied but otherwise sounds like a great way to interact with a community around articles

I got the wiki data extension to try and have this effect, but that didn't really work for the case. Still use to categorize stuff though.

wrote last edited by [email protected]You can't account for viewing the same dynamic content across all pages on the Internet. Nothing is consistent, and stuff changes. I don't think it really matters though. Commenting on dynamic content is a function of social media or the site itself, not a third party addon. It would still be useful without that

wouldn't be much stress really.
I'm currently building something with fediverse integration so this is a great idea and something i'll look into. Basically you would be logged into an instance (lemmy.world) and if you're navigating a to a site or even an RSS feed you could see if there's any relevant links to said article/story/whatever back to lemmy.
right now I have a feed built that allows you to log into all your instances (mastodon, lemmy, peertube, etc) and displays all the content you're subscribed to in a single feed. So adding in what you've suggested would be a great feature.

Haha, sick. Count me in if you want a beta tester

I use an extension that replaces YouTube comments with Reddit comments, if the video was posted anywhere on Reddit.
Would be nice to have a Lemmy version.

I could probably make this as a firefox/chromium extension pretty easily. Simple UI similar to ad-blockers, but instead of the number of ads blocked, the number of annotations, and click it to show them (to avoid the giant drawings you don't want popping up by default).
The problem in today's world isn't building it, it's moderating it.
