Howdy! Owner of simpl.fyi here. Is this a request for cross-promotion? Or maybe even trying to build an umbrella paid plan that covers multiple extensions? |
Cross promotions:
Umbrella paid plans

hi @leggett!🌞 Yes, alternative title: 'what do you guys(users) think about the top few most perfectly/conceptually related projects?/''cousins(pendants for another context/website). - Promoting them well would just depend on telling that they exist. (not depending on much visual campaign nor our approval/authority). +I attempted to lay out what else could be done by any two projects, in our two organizational states 'paid' vs. 'free/unfunded'. Maybe ImprovedTube would link to Simpl.fyi already, if both were free. (not requiring cross promotion). But when paid, It would be great/fair if the free/unfunded project would get all profit, that it would cause, as long as it is financially weak and could multiply its development. ( Such could be motivated/tracked through an optional link/coupon shared only with the users of the free project and a difference in plan, with clear advantages & disadvantages (discount/donation vs. no support or a missing pro-feature, yet of course, it would be harder to guess how many, who might not want to know paid/Poor countries could be skipped unless price was dynamic like Spotify's ~$1.5 to $12).
Yay (not yet/doesn't apply to free projects). You are right, I'm into teaming / 'synergy'. Just read your second answer. You are fast! 👍
Curious about your experience, was the ChromeWebstore counter 80000 last year?
sure! unless knowing already / informing about facts. Maybe the first time i noticed Simplify was by an advanced github search to see if any repo had more CSS than ImprovedTube. (excluding frameworks). Makers arent their most common users often. Yet it is good to be informed, even developing for oneself, to feel productive? all (code) effort deserves to be unique? (Don't want to reinvent wheels. When something is already done by somebody, there tends to be something better to do. And so many things done by 0 people for years.)
how long is your list of ideas for Facebook, Youtube (and more?) |
One idea: a referral fee. |
happy sunday, ah, assumed recent decrease in users was from 'paid' only, as an inevitable trade-off. Maybe most serious extension developers are 'traumatic about accidental permission dialogues! :) |
I have a second version with ~400 people on it that I use for testing (canary.simpl.fyi). And I use Chrome's slow rollout option (which does seem to work for me... I've had the new version with the subscription requirement locked at 20% for over a week and while it trickles out to some it definitely hasn't gone out to all). But I didn't use or know about Chrome's % release back in February unfortunately. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ |
Hi Guys! Creator of Social Fixer here. Is this a public conversation? I am more likely to be transparent in a private conversation. |
I am very very cautious of doing anything that might be considered spammy or promotional. The whole goal of my extension is to improve social media by removing ads, distractions, etc. I cannot become the thing that I propose to fix! So I would be willing to proceed, but only in a way that closely guards the privacy of my users and does not impose advertising or promotional manipulation on them. |
I believe this is public. Happy to move to a private forum. Email works fine for me -- hi@simpl.fyi |
hi @matt-kruse :) nice to meet you guys!
awesome! i might not have chosen good words yet, the math just looks like:
yes, can't be private in public github repo i think. you can edit. projects@improvedtube.com This thread was read by 6 people yet, most of whom intend to represent users well / sensitively and will voice any doubt afaik. (='definition of public Git beyond code'?). Might be good if any newer/smaller extension's developer, that i didnt hear of feels invited to join this thread too.

Just like us, Social Fixer (for Facebook) helps to tidy in many ways. Developed by @matt-kruse.
+The fact that every user on Facebook has a wealth of unused data allows powerful features,
such as 'Un-friend Notification'. (While this can be sad to notice quietly, it can also be great in various moments. For example a 'false-match' of this are friends who disable their Facebook temporarily. For example in depressed phases. So it must be nice for some people to have a notification for that. Even 100,000s of users are a few in percent. (While 99.x% of people accept facebook's unpersonal/one-fit-all way.) So potentially such code could fix society more literally than the name 'Social Fixer' might be meant? )
Would/n't it be great for once, to show Social-Fixer, to ImprovedTube Users? - Assumably half of all users would enjoy both extensions? (those who use both Youtube & Facebook in the Browser) (- Yet most people in the world heard of neither Extension. Both aren't popular enough to have many users in common already.)
Social Fixer started in 2009. ImprovedTube started in 2012.
Same as their alternatives 'Youtube enhancer' and 'F.B. purity'.
It could make sense to inform about these alternatives too, besides the preexisting intersection of users might be a bit more there. And it would be less expected ('unnecessary or 'confusing. And some 'competitiors' wouldn't agree. Yet there is far more more work in each niche than is done. I.e. such 'competitiors' could actually understand themselves team/cut their future ToDo lists in halves. But that will be another post/discussion.)
