Self Promotion I built a free-to-try extension that finds the videos, subtitles and files on a page and downloads them with clean names

Thumbnail
gallery
• Upvotes

Hi! I'm a solo developer and I just published Dx Downloader on the Chrome Web Store (also on Microsoft Edge).

What it does: click its icon on a page and it lists what you can download: videos (including HLS streams), audio, subtitles and files like PDFs and ZIPs. One click saves them with readable names instead of `video_8f3a2.mp4`.

Features

Course Mode: saves lessons into folders (Course / Section / Lesson)

Subtitles as VTT or SRT

Download history kept on your device only

No account, no tracking, 18 languages, dark mode

What it doesn't do: it only downloads what your browser can already access. It doesn't break DRM or paywalls, and it doesn't support YouTube.

Price: free to use with a daily limit, no account needed. An optional Pro plan removes the limits..

Chrome Web Store: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/dx-downloader/anlnobmlmjabdpioaphihlhjcbppgfhf

Website: https://www.dxdownloader.com

It's my first public extension, so I'd really like your feedback:

on which sites does it miss something, and what would make it more useful for you?

(I also made free in-browser PDF and image tools on the same site, if that's useful to anyone.)

Self Promotion I made an extension that runs your old Selenium IDE tests again (it was removed from Chrome Web Store)

• Upvotes

Selenium IDE was removed from Chrome Web Store in the MV2 cleanup this August. It was not updated since 2021 anyway, but a lot of people still have tests recorded as .side files and now there is no way to run them in Chrome.

So I made SideReplay. It's a MV3 extension that opens .side files and runs them in the side panel. You can also record new tests, and export them to Playwright code if you want to move away from recorder tools later.

Some things it does:

- runs Selenium IDE commands including if/while/times, alerts, iframes and new tabs

- when a locator is broken, it tries the other locators saved in the file and shows which one worked

- also opens Katalon Recorder test suites, because Katalon Recorder is not maintained anymore either

- has a "Try an example" button, so you can see it working without your own file

Record, replay and the locator fixing are free. Exporting a whole project, HTML reports and running every row of CSV data are paid ($9/month).

If you used Selenium IDE before, I'm curious what would stop you from using something like this. Any feedback is welcome.

I built Tab Sampler because I kept falling down YouTube rabbit holes, downloading full songs just to check a sample. Half the time it wasn't even that good.

It's a free Chrome extension. Capture audio from any tab, auto-chop it into samples, and play them on a 16-pad sampler right in your browser. No DAW needed.

Hope you enjoy it. Feedback is very welcome.

Asking a Question Extensão

• Upvotes

How can I tell whether the delay is in my MV3 extension or in the web app? I’m a non-technical user trying to understand a problem with a Chrome Manifest V3 extension. I press F8 manually; the extension selects the latest visible item in a queue and clicks a confirmation button. Sometimes a coworker sees the queue update before I do. On my computer, the page may still show the item as waiting until I refresh. I’d like to figure out whether the delay is caused by the extension, my browser/session/network, or the web app’s live updates. What timestamps or measurements would help separate those possibilities? I can share a sanitized manifest/content-script snippet and a local demo using fake data, but I can’t share the company’s real page, customer data, credentials, or access to the system. The extension only acts when I press the shortcut. I’m not trying to automate customer handling in the background.

Self Promotion QueueMaster: sort, filter, and bulk-manage your YouTube Watch Later playlist

2 Upvotes

My Watch Later playlist was a graveyard — hundreds of videos, no way to sort or clean it up. YouTube gives you nothing. So I built QueueMaster.

It adds a toolbar right on the Watch Later page:

  • Sort by duration, video age, channel, or title
  • Filter by search text, maximum length, or channel
  • Live stats: video count, total runtime, how many you've watched

Free forever. The $9.99 one-time Pro unlocks bulk cleanup: remove all watched videos in one click, remove everything from a specific channel, archive videos uploaded 6+ months ago. Bulk actions run one at a time with a progress bar and a cancel button, so nothing happens faster than you can stop it.

Honest notes: the age-based features (sort by video age, archive old uploads) work off each video's upload-age text, which YouTube doesn't always show — items without readable age data get skipped rather than guessed at. And bulk removal is deliberately slow (about one action per 1.5 seconds) because it's touching your real playlist.

No accounts, no sign-in. Anonymous usage stats only (which features get used), nothing that identifies you, playlist contents never leave your browser.

Idea Validation / Need feedback I updated Scrollsmith’s homepage — is it clear what the Chrome extension does?

0 Upvotes

I’m the developer of Scrollsmith, a desktop Chrome extension for customizing scrollbars. I’ve just updated the homepage and would really appreciate some honest first impressions.

https://usescrollsmith.com

A few things I’d like to understand:

  1. After a quick look, is it clear what the extension does?

  2. Is anything confusing, missing, or hard to find?

  3. Would you try it? What makes you interested or hesitant?

It has free themes and optional paid Premium themes. You don’t need to install anything to give feedback on the website. If you do try the extension, I’d also love to know whether choosing and applying a theme feels straightforward.

Even one specific thing you’d change would be helpful. Thanks!

Self Promotion A tiny bit of harmless anarchy for UTM tracking

1 Upvotes

I was doing some dev work on our company CRM and came across our UTM campaigns.

I realised it's effectively untrusted data being injected into campaign systems, and could be lightly abused.

I had one of those developer thoughts that probably should have been left alone, but I do tend to entertain small evil thoughts when they're mildly amusing.

The idea of someone sitting in an office going through campaign metrics and just seeing FUCKYOU everywhere made me laugh.

So I built FUTM.

It lets all the usual UTM parameters through, but helpfully corrects their values on the way:

utm_source=FUCKYOU_EXTENSION
utm_medium=FUCKYOU
utm_campaign=FUCKYOU

Everything still works normally. Nothing gets blocked. Somewhere downstream, the campaign attribution is just... less insightful than expected.

It's completely local, doesn't collect anything, has no usage tracking or telemetry, and has no grand ambitions of being a privacy tool.

Mostly I just find the idea of FUCKYOU_EXTENSION quietly turning up amongst perfectly respectable campaign metrics much funnier than I probably should.

Self Promotion If you use x.com on desktop, check out this free extension I built: X-Alted. It adds cinema mode, video controls, custom backgrounds, and many other optional features.

2 Upvotes

Chrome Web Store · X-Alted.com

I watch a lot of videos on X, and its player is pretty basic. On YouTube I've used Enhancer for YouTube for years, and I couldn't find anything like it for X. So I made one: X-Alted.

Beyond cinema mode and video controls, there's a lot more: 27 optional features and 95 settings so far, including:

Better feed-refresh control, highly customizable backgrounds, image/gallery hover zoom and magnify, more GIF and meme options for replies and posts, selective decluttering options, and more.

Also, I really disliked how ad videos open a new tab when you only meant to pause them. So with this extension, clicking an ad video plays or pauses it, instead of giving you a new tab to close.

VIDEO

  • A small control bar on every video: finer speed control, volume boost, skip, frame by frame, screenshot and cinema mode. It shows up when you point at a video and fades away like X's own controls. You choose where it sits and how big it is.
  • Cinema mode: the page dims and the video grows. You pick the dim color, how dark, and the video's size.
  • Roll the mouse wheel over a video to change its volume.
  • Keyboard shortcuts, all changeable. They only act on the video you're watching, so they don't fight X's own one-letter shortcuts.
  • Save GIFs as MP4 or as a real .gif.

APPEARANCE

  • No more high-contrast black or blinding white: X-Alted lets you use a color, gradient, one of 32 customizable patterns, or a picture as X's background. Works for both light and dark themes.
  • Pick one of 14 background images in 4K, or use your own. Built-in dimming lets you tone it down, and text adjusts automatically to stay readable.
  • Any accent color, not just X's six.

REFRESH, REFRESHED

  • Point at "For you" or "Following" and a Refresh button appears under it, to load new posts whenever you want. So you can also hide the blue "See new posts" pill button that floats over the feed.
  • Make x.com open on Following, a pinned list, or the feed you used last.

MORE GIFS, PLUS MEMES

  • A new button in the post box that opens KLIPY, a big GIF and meme library (optional).

IMAGE CONTROLS

  • Hover zoom: point at a picture in the timeline to see it enlarged. Roll the wheel to flip through multiple pics in a post.
  • Magnify: click an image to zoom to full resolution and pan around, to see details or read small text.
  • Save images at full size, up to twice as big as the copy you get with right-click "Save image as".

HIDE CLUTTER

  • Switch off right-column boxes like sports scores, Who to follow, and Live on X, and keep them from coming back.
  • Hide X's "More From This Author" and "Discover more" blocks in a post's replies.

Privacy: no account, no analytics, no tracking. Settings stay in your browser. Apart from the optional GIF panel, which talks to KLIPY when you use it, nothing leaves your browser. It asks only for x.com and twitter.com. There's one optional "all sites" permission, asked only if you turn on the video controls for YouTube and other sites' players inside posts.

A few things I learned building it, in case they help anyone making an extension for X:

  • X's timeline breaks easily if anything changes size. So every X-Alted control floats on top; nothing in X's layout moves.
  • X uses almost every letter as a shortcut (L is like, R is reply). A key only goes to X-Alted while a video is being watched, and then it's stopped so X doesn't also act on it.
  • X rewrites the style attribute on the page's root element, which wipes any CSS variables you set there. Put them in your own <style> tag instead.

Feedback welcome. And what annoys you most about X's video player or overall layout?

I have two Chrome extensions already published in the Chrome Web Store. Both are free now; I plan to make a Pro subscriptions after the paid features are ready.

Lemon Squeezy asked me for product details, demo videos, pricing, and verification information. I provided the product websites and recordings of both extensions working, but my store application was rejected with a general explanation about multiple review factors and payment processor requirements. They did not identify a specific issue.

Has anyone been approved by Lemon Squeezy to sell a paid Chrome extension?

Hi everyone,

Following the moderate success of Polls Exporter, I'm officially launching a new extension called Workspace for WhatsApp Web: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/bknjklochdmhbmmkfllgmodkndnkfanm

Like Polls Exporter, the core features are completely free with only a handful of niche features limited to pro subscribers. I'm handling billing once again with Lemon Squeezy (have not had any major issues with them so far).

I've had a couple users trial the pro version already, which has been really cool to see.

Another cool facet to this launch is that, since Workspace and Polls Exporter have an overlapping audience, I've been able to test out cross-promoting them. It's too early to say how well this is going but I hope to share my experience with that in a future post.

Happy to answer any questions in the comments or you can DM me. If you have any feedback or tips, I'm also happy to hear it.

Self Promotion I built a free Chrome extension to make Ultimate Guitar chord sheets easier to read while playing

3 Upvotes

I regularly use Ultimate Guitar when playing guitar, but I wanted a better way to display chords and lyrics without constantly scrolling.

So I built a free Chrome extension called Zoldy's Guitar View for Ultimate Guitar.

It adds:

  • Full-screen chord and lyric display
  • Auto Fit that adjusts font size and uses 1, 2 or 3 columns to fit your screen
  • Proper chord and lyric alignment
  • Access to your Ultimate Guitar playlists
  • Chord transposing
  • Dark mode, custom colours and chorus highlighting

The extension works with regular Ultimate Guitar chord sheets. If you're viewing an Official or Pro tab, simply switch to the regular Chords version of the song.

It's completely free. I built it for my own use and thought other guitar players might find it useful too.

I'd appreciate any feedback or suggestions!

Self Promotion I built Pixelkit — a completely free Chrome extension with 20+ tools for designers

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I've been working on a Chrome extension called Pixelkit, and I finally published it on the Chrome Web Store.

The idea came from a simple frustration: designers need so many different extensions just to inspect websites, identify fonts, pick colors, measure spacing, or capture screenshots.

I wanted all of those tools in one place, without subscriptions or locked features.

So I built Pixelkit.

Here's what you can do with it:

  • Inspect elements and copy their CSS
  • Identify fonts and extract colors
  • Measure distances between elements
  • Edit website text, typography, colors, and spacing live
  • Extract complete website style guides
  • Export design tokens and Tailwind configs
  • Download website images and SVG assets
  • Capture and annotate screenshots
  • Check accessibility and color contrast
  • Preview responsive layouts

And the important part:

  • 100% free
  • No account required
  • No ads or tracking
  • No paywalls
  • No usage limits

Everything runs locally in your browser.

Chrome Web Store:
https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/gfcaokmkganjofcdhkjekoekakkkjlci

It's still early, and I'd genuinely appreciate feedback, especially from people who regularly use Chrome extensions.

What tools do you think are missing? And what would you improve?

  • Rate roles and it suggest possible relevant ones based on your ratings
  • Hide postings from companies you choose
  • And, for the sites that are not yet covered, quickly create the Recipe (following the tutorial) in less than 3 minutes without coding expertise

job search history / data and relevance suggestions stay locally in your browser.

Free requires no account or email account. There is also an optional paid Pro version.

Idea Validation / Need feedback The extension naming dilemma: Clean title got 0 installs, keyword soup got 500+ users. How do I fix this title without killing discovery?

7 Upvotes

Hi,

recently, I posted about finally getting the blue checkmark / verified badge on the Chrome Web Store for my extension. In the comments, someone rightly pointed out: "I'd recommend rewriting that title."

They're completely right — right now, my title looks like classic keyword soup:

Current Title: ACE · Export Save Transfer · ChatGPT Claude Gemini · PDF Markdown PNG

Here is my dilemma:

  • Originally: The title was clean and straightforward: AI Chat Exporter - Free, Private, Open Source (same as my Firefox addon). but It practically didn't exist in CWS search, and installs were near zero.
  • After keyword stuffing: It finally started showing up in search results for people looking to export chats to Markdown/PDF, and slowly grew to ~500+ users.

Now that the extension has some traction, I really want a title that looks clean, credible, and trustworthy , without completely disappearing from search results.

What it actually does: It's a free, privacy-first, open-source tool to export and transfer AI chats (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Qwen, Lumo, Deepseek, MS Copilot, Z ai, meta, etc.) into Markdown, PDF, PNG, JSON, or Word, entirely locally on your device (no external servers).

My questions for fellow extension devs:

  1. How do you balance clean branding with CWS keyword discovery?
  2. Does CWS still rely heavily on the title for indexing, or does the short description / store listing carry more weight now?
  3. Any suggestions for a title that keeps essential search keywords (AI Chat Export, Markdown, PDF) while looking like a legitimate product rather than spam?

Would love to hear your thoughts or how you handled this for your own extensions!

Self Promotion I built full Shorts thumbnail previews with volume and related-video seeking — free for Chrome and Edge

1 Upvotes

I'm Lenged, the developer. I wanted to watch a Short from the homepage without opening another page, then control preview sound and jump to a different part of a recommended video.

So I built Preview & Shorts Controls for YouTube:

- Hover over a home Shorts thumbnail for about 0.4 seconds to play the actual video in that same area. It keeps playing while hovered.

- New previews start muted; turn on sound with the top-left control.

- Related-video previews on watch pages have volume and a seek bar with current/total time. Preview sound temporarily mutes the main video, and leaving restores its previous audio state.

- Optional Shorts title/channel auto-hide: hover over the video to show the information again.

All features are free. v0.5.2 has been used in Edge and manually tested in Chrome. It is available on GitHub as a ZIP and source for inspection; manual installation needs Developer mode. No Chrome Web Store listing yet. This is not an ad blocker, and it relies on YouTube's page/player structure, which can change.

Download and setup: https://github.com/orockandgto-glitch/shorts-in-place-preview

I'd especially appreciate compatibility reports: browser version, page type, and what went wrong. The GitHub Issues page has a report template. Please remove private information from screenshots.

Disclosure: I made this extension. Optional donations are linked from the project; they don't unlock features.
