This looks amazing! I wish it was possible to make a version for iOS using Safari's content blocker extensions.

I like it! I might like to explore some ideas with you in a private conversation sometime. I'm traveling and the jet lag is affecting my ability to focus fully, but once I'm back home in San Francisco we should arrange a call.

@jason Is this essentially TL;DR applied to ad blocking? Looking forward to giving it a whirl!

@brendanbeirne One way to think about it. Same kinds of content as TLDR, just served up in place of dumb things you wouldn't want to click on anyway.

Aside from being a great product, are plans for monetizing?

@jroache1 if we build good will and get 1m folks to install it, we can ask for donations to make it better.... so, step one: let's get the first 1,000 people to use the product and see if they tell their friends. If we do, we can just popup a note every 100 days and say "hey, if you appreciate this product please send us $1 or $5 or $10 to keep improving it.

@pvptowers thanks.... we think this is just the start. It's going to learn what you click on in the next version and blow your mind with suggestions. The web will be cleaned up..... and intelligent! I'm sure some folks are not going to be happy, but it's *your* browser and you can do what you want! :-)

@jason TLDR has already become one of my daily go to apps so I'm sure this will become another extension of my news consumption

@jason @pvptowers TLDR is a great - people are seeing it on my screen asking "what is that" so that's usually a good sign! @lons - off topic but for TLDR enabling users to set a preference for topic would be helpful (i.e. I could set 'science & tech' to open by default). Great work on getting two awesome products out in what two weeks?

@craigzingerline @pvptowers We have some more personalization stuff coming soon for TLDR...but if you go to the "Science & Tech" category...it remembers what category you have it on...so the next time you open a tab it will open S&T by default.
