I love this so much. It's pretty much a GUI for , offering an easier way for folks to find elements on a webpage and do things to them. Yes, you could do the same things directly by just writing JavaScript yourself. But this is much, much faster, and requires a bit less knowledge. It took me less than 30 seconds to turn all the story titles on fanfiction.net into headings. Labeling a button, or making other small changes would be just as fast. The typos and slightly incorrect English put me off at first; especially the word "blinds" for blind people felt weird and derogatory. apparently the author is from , though, so maybe that's standard there. stsolution2.org/WebAccessibilizer/

@fastfinge It is 100% a language thing, yes. Many languages outside of English don't really do the "blind person" thing but nounify the word blind into essentially "blind one", so if you then backtranslate back to English that just becomes blind/blinds. The guy has been working on this for years and it actually used to be a tampermonkey script, but it got accepted in the chrome store a couple days ago

@zersiax Oh, interesting. I just discovered it today. But it's going to be hugely useful going forward.
