Thanks! Yeah I think this is likely the direction I will take things.

Yeah definitely. Going to build out a first version of block lists / reporting this weekend. Someone else wants a firefox version too so might start there in terms of additional browser support. Thanks!

Thanks for linking to your comment on the Hypothes.is post! Will check it out. I by no means think this (or related ideas) have not been built / attempted. This is an experiment, not meant to be well-funded or even large. But, I take your feedback in good spirits, appreciate the thoughts!

totally, this is a feature I am working on. might even just do a report feature and remove anything that has been reported too many times by different people before doing true ranking.

Thanks! All good, I think some people are interpreting this as 1) me thinking this is some sort of groundbreaking novel idea and 2) that I am trying to scale this in a venture scale sort of way haha. Neither are true. The walled garden idea came up elsewhere too, really like it and considered it. Just have to think through details and add the user management side.

Thanks! Yeah I recall Marc talking about related ideas with Mosaic actually now that you mention it.

Yeah I was considering that idea too, like a trusted circle feature. But haven't done any user management yet as this is purely an experiment. Agree automation can only go so far, but at least that can catch the low hanging fruit.

Yes totally! The framing of "web graffiti" was something I played with, but didn't like the association with spam or purely artistic purpose.

Thanks for checking it out ghusto! No need to apologize. What other solution would you expect outside of the Chrome Extension? You just mean you want a different browser supported?
