Seemed like an interesting project, clicked on the linked scanned the page an it seems to be an empty pointless web page trying to explain over pages worth of scrolling that it allows to deal with text trapped inside images which I already knew when I clicked the link.

Going back to the page after closing it once, I noticed written in smaller characters that this somewhat pointless page is for a useless extension as it is exclusively limited to the worst offender privacy wise of a web browser that I would not touch with a stick. google chrome is the new internet explorer to me as its main use is to download firefox.

In conclusion this looked promising but a confusing web page and browser lock-in renders it useless and shows that it is far from doing what it claims. "... on every image you see while browsing the web" should be "...on every image you see while browsing the web in google chrome".

No github and no open license tells me that as a linux user of opera I'm pretty much assured I will never see a version of this extension.



Not sure why my comment is downvoted, this is worthwhile (potential) user feedback/criticism.

Webpage is not to the point and design has some room for improvement. See point 1 and 2 of http://www.webpagesthatsuck.com/biggest-mistakes-in-web-desi...
