Anonymous user feedback: "It didn't catch all of my shopping sites, only amazon and etsy."
Our answer: Go to settings (right click on Intent icon in browser bar) and edit groups by dragging sites into the groups you want (or adding groups!)

Anonymous user feedback: "The counter could be placed at the bottom corner as in the case of videos else it becomes annoying."

Solution: You can change the placement of the counter! Scroll over the counter (left photo) then choose what you want (right photo).

@pfyfe We've got another tool you might find interesting, if your goal is being more mindful of how you spend time online! https://t.co/MfdPnrAOqP :)

@thedevarsh In that case, you might enjoy adding Intent to your toolbox, too! Let us know what you think...https://t.co/MRLgbJ56Ac

Happy to announce my latest project: Twitter Demetricator! Follower, like, notification counts (and many more) all disappear. Try out Twitter without the numbers and see what happens when you can no longer judge yourself or others in metric terms. https://t.co/pphs54fh63

Check out this @elements piece about the Twitter Demetricator! The Intent team is definitely going to give this a try... https://t.co/yi0JEXcsC8

My Twitter right now is flickering like an old TV set. It's exactly how I want it: usable, but certainly not fun :)

(I'm experimenting with ways to gracefully degrade the UI as a deterrent to prolonged usage. Part of my https://t.co/d9pmJQFohJ project.)

The problem: Facebook offers many people truly valuable services. But engaging just with the things you find truly valuable would require 20 – 40 min/week, and one or two visits.

@InspiredBuddha great Q. Short answer: it might just be a free lunch? We’ve no plans to monetize, nor any idea how =/. We’re treating as a passion project.
