Show HN: Is It Greg?
A Chrome extension called "Is It Greg?" was recently shared on Hacker News, highlighting submissions from the website greg.technology and its creator, Greg Sadetsky. The extension adds an orange badge with Greg's face to any pages featuring his contributions.
When a user hovers over the badge, it displays a brief explanation of Greg's involvement. A dancing Greg icon appears in the corner of the screen, accompanied by a count of how many instances of Greg's content are present. Users can click the dancing icon to view more details about each sighting.
The extension also features a button with the same orange count that allows users to jump to the next occurrence of Greg's content on the page. For users who prefer a motion-free experience, they can enable the "reduce motion" setting, causing Greg to remain stationary and the thrown Gregs to fade in and out as they settle. Once the extension is enabled, there are no additional dependencies or permissions required beyond running on news.ycombinator.com.
