ThreadHelper may be getting removed from the Chrome web store starting June 2023
Google is changing its web extension standards from manifest v2 to v3. It's a move designed to hit ad-blockers, against user interests.
We depend on webRequest, a feature of v2 that's getting cut.
With Manifest V3, Google is harming privacy and limiting user choice. The bottom line, though, is that Brave will still continue to offer leading protection against invasive ads and trackers.
Keep your privacy protected by switching to Brave today: https://t.co/4wVWi9bfK3

We think you'll still be able to download threadhelper as a .zip file and install it manually
@itsarnavb@thlpr ❤️ issue is not known, I wonder if it persists if you restart your browser and it the extension
Let me know if I can support you while debugging!
Scaling posed some problems, which @ExGenesis wrote about
We stopped developing because we didn't get enough traction in the time we allotted for it. It seemed right to open the code to the community and let development continue in a bottom-up way.

4/5
writing up, summary:🧵
Lessons: fix scope early: easier than gradually expanding scope
Problems: local-first implies high memory usage; search could be better; important work is boring; crowding in the space of group cognition;
Next moves: Sustainability and escaping Twitter
