Using ChatGPT to build missing features on most social media platforms to manage my DMs

About 2 years ago, Facebook removed the option to filter conversations to see only unread messages. As I didn't always have the time to respond to all my DMs, it was a bit annoying to have to scroll down to find buried conversations that needed to be responded to. But, at that time, I was not receiving enough messages for that problem to be painful enough for me to truly want it to be resolved. I looked a few times for ways on how I could filter my messages to see only unread conversations, but I couldn't find anything. So, I just continued my life without resolving this issue and hope someone would build an extension for it as I had never made one. That changed a few months ago. As I started to be more active online to connect with more people, and requested many freebies, I got more inbound messages, and it started to be a bigger problem as I was forgetting to respond to people. It could take weeks before I would randomly scroll low enough in my inbox and realize that I still had unread conversations I didn't respond to. Sometimes, either the conversation or the person were important to me. It started to really be a problem. With the rise of AI, and ChatGPT, I decided a few days ago that it would be time to leverage the power of GPT-3.5 to help me build a Chrome extension to solve this issue. A few hours later, I had a bare-bone version of the extension. I found out that Manifest V2 was ending, so I had to ask ChatGPT to make it work with the new Manifest V3. Even though about 75% of it was made using ChatGPT, I learned that to make a simple extension, it wasn't much more complicated than building a website. The following day, I had an extension live on the Chrome Web Store. That's how Left Unread came to be, from a small personal problem that grew over time into a painful one that needed to be resolved. That's how Left Unread came to be. It is a free Chrome extension to show you only unread conversations at the top of your inbox on Facebook, Messenger and Twitter. In one click, Left Unread scans your inbox and brings all your unread conversations to the top of your inbox. It is perfect for entrepreneurs, founders, creators or even sales representatives who rely on DM conversations. Whether you chat with your audience using DMs or sign up for many freebies, it will change your relationship with inbound messages and keep you on top of your inbox. Left Unread's easy-to-use interface is straightforward and user-friendly. No customization, no complicated algorithms. Just a simple idea with an incredible use for anyone who wants to end inbox overwhelm and stop wasting time searching for important messages. It's free and easy to use, so there's no reason not to give it a try. I'd love to hear your feedback to potentially improve it, and understand how useful this extension is for you. I'm excited to hear your feedback, and I'm happy to answer your questions. PS - You can check out the launch page: https://www.producthunt.com/post...
