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

        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.

        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.

            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.

            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.

                  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.
