What Chrome/browser extension you want?


Hi HN

I am planning to get in building mode. I plan to build 1 extension per month and do it over the next 3-4 months. I would love suggestion/request for what you want to get built.

There is surprise for early adopter and idolators here.

I want something that automatically gets rid of those STUPID GPDR and cookie banners automatically. Answer no to everything and bypass them.

Maybe this exists, but blur images unless site is whitelisted. Then a person could read the news without bikini pics and Oscar dress pics, etc. UK papers are the worst.

Simple data-scraping: I want grab the items in page and export them in a structured way (JSON, CSV). It should have an intuitive way to handle infinite scrolling or pagination.

It should be simple enough so that I don't have to open an IDE for basic scrapping scenarios.
