Lantern, a browser extension for highlighting and annotating webpages: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/lantern/jjoijlenmgefkaeiomoaelcljfibpcgh

This is very hard to do but it actually works since it is a fork of the long-established hypothes.is extension, only changed to be compatible with NIP-84 and NIP-73. Thanks nostr:npub1dejts0qlva8mqzjlrxqkc2tmvs2t7elszky5upxaf3jha9qs9m5q605uc4 for the initial forking work.

Here it is rendering an annotation made by nostr:npub1xsp9fcq340dzaqjctjl7unu3k0c82jdxc350uqym70k8vedzuvdst562dr somewhere else I have no idea where:

It even works on PDFs:

Even though it works it definitely has bugs, so bug reports are appreciated (by "bug report" I mean just replying here). Thank you.

I guess you could annotate when pages with the built in code editors and to allow the code as a localhost style sheet that remembers the web page might work, but then there would have to be a hash function that let you know the original was updated or changed.

Bug trying to sign an annotation with Amber.

Looks intriguing. Do you know Zotero? If not you may find it interesting to take a look

I'm not sure how to log in (alby signer)

but I'm stupid

I tried on phone too, I found the bunker url thing I needed, but yeah it just says 'connecting' for ages. I give up, probably too difficult for me lol

Copy/pasted my nsec lol

Highlight error: failed. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Can someone explain who I can get this to work lol. I've only just learnt that 'bunker url' is a thing (which you need to use this).

"Failed to save annotation: Error: Failed to publish highlight"

Muda para algum outro relay lá no topo ao invés de local development.

Muito bom. nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 Sei que você gosta de dar trabalho aos usuários do seu aplicativo, mas considere a possibilidade de adicionar uma retransmissão padrão (por exemplo, nos.lol) para que os usuários não precisem passar por essa etapa.

Page note does not work

In which way does it not work?

I type something, and I tap ”Post to nos.lol”, and whatever I wrote is lost

PDF highlight does not want to publish

Thank you for all these tests. i guess I need better error messages.

What am I doing wrong with PDF annotation?

Change to other relay on top, where it is local development.

This is brilliant and amazing.

I am in love with this. Feels like I can spread grafitti all over the internet.

Great idea! 👏

Just FYI, your git host is throwing 429s for me after only a few requests. I know, AI scrapers are terrible these days, but the current request limit is too low for not shutting out real users.

Yeah, ok, I will remove it but first I want to come up with something to spit out garbage that looks like code for these scrapers to read instead.

I don't get it

what don't you get?

How when why do I use it?

How: Install the browser extension.

When: Whenever you want to easily record or share a passage from a website

Why: Because you want to do the above.

Copy ya idk why I have trouble understanding highlights.... What's the legacy social media comparison??

maybe something like Medium? I think they have highlights that you can share or comment on (within their walled garden, of course)

I use it in damus to highlight important quotes from articles. Its easier than double coping & pasting the quote & link

Ya it sounds cool AF...how do we do it on amythest?

Which browser extension?

Ya I see but it's not easy to find for kiwi browser

yea it appears to be a chromium-based browser extension.

Yes, yes I did. Have you messed with it yet?

No, the wider internet is too big and scares me like the ocean. You let me know how it is 🤙

lol ok fine

nostr:npub1m3xdppkd0njmrqe2ma8a6ys39zvgp5k8u22mev8xsnqp4nh80srqhqa5sf you see this? Similar to what we chatted about a short while ago (the zillowsucks site or something). Seems to work after one quick test

liminal heavily joined in with my gangstalkers at least once for the record

Consider letting it go. Don't wanna get into it, but fwiw I'll say that before I knew you better I almost joined in once. I thought maybe it was some sort of troll or andy kaufman performance art you were carrying on with. And it's easy to get carried away and be a dick online sometimes.

After joining in heavily, it doesn't get let go until even heavier action is taken to make up for it

The gangstalking subreddit is run by gangstalkers but might still have some good info to help you understand how serious this issue is

It's not realistic at all to imagine letting it go with people who joined in heavily and haven't atoned for it

Another source of good info might be searching "darqwolff" (my first reddit username) on rdrama.net if that site is still around, it was an organizing hub for gangstalkers after their /r/drama subreddit got banned from reddit

I'm not sure if those retards know about my npub, shit might get fucked up now because of me posting this. Ah well

Is this kiwi browser?

With a pdf, highlighting a passage spanning multiple pages seems to not work (no prompt to highlight or annotate shows up). Based on one only one pdf book i happened to try this on today
