Show HN: A Chrome extension for passive responsive smoke testing

Hacker News - Tue, 02/10/2026 - 4:34am

Most responsive edge cases don’t appear during testing. They show up during real usage, at slightly “wrong” viewport widths.

This Chrome extension randomly shifts the viewport width to realistic values while you use your site normally.

The goal is passive exposure, not active testing: you keep working, and edge cases surface on their own.

Repo (Chrome Web Store approval pending, local install for now):

https://github.com/pavel-voronin/chrome-random-viewport

Feedback welcome.

Show HN: Platform for Ranking and Discussing Figures

Hacker News - Tue, 02/10/2026 - 4:33am

I built MostBased because I wanted a simple way to track how people feel about public figures in a measurable way, and I couldn't find a tool that did that with community input and evolving data.

MostBased lets users vote on figures every 24 hours and add events or facts that get attached to those figures over time. The focus is on *votes and user-submitted events*, not biographies — you can get those on Wikipedia.

I’d love feedback on a few things: - Is this format useful or interesting to you? - Any tips for improving the voting/recording model? - Ideas for better UI/UX or data representation?

Thanks!

Show HN: VidStudio – Video processing that runs in the browser

Hacker News - Tue, 02/10/2026 - 4:22am

I wanted to ship a clean, polished video processing tool that runs entirely in the browser.

My goal was to give users something low friction: no accounts, no software to install, no uploading files to servers, and no ads or annoying popups.

It runs on the multithreaded FFmpeg WASM build. While impressive, there are limitations with file sizes. The real pain was getting FFmpeg commands to terminate properly.

For anyone working on something similar who keeps running into commands that hang endlessly don't give up. The answer is controlling the number of threads FFmpeg uses at different steps in the processing pipeline.

Any feedback appreciated.

Yourcomfortline.com Hear them again. AI voice companion for comfort and healing

Hacker News - Tue, 02/10/2026 - 4:21am

I did not cry at the funeral. I went home, the house was quiet, and I realized I could not remember how he said my name. That night my phone rang from a private number. When I answered, I heard his voice say it the way he always had. I knew it was AI. I was not confused or pretending. But my hands were shaking anyway. He had recorded the message earlier with explicit consent, just in case I ever needed it. I listened for less than a minute, then cried for the first time. That moment is why we built YourComfortLine, a consent-first AI voice system that delivers real phone calls for grief, closure, and emotional grounding. This will not be for everyone, and that is intentional.

Show HN: Sigilla, I built a Pocket replacement because Mozilla killed it

Hacker News - Tue, 02/10/2026 - 3:51am

I was a heavy Pocket user. When they shut down the API and service in 2025, I was left with a useless HTML backup.

I built Sigilla to restore my workflow. It parses those HTML exports locally. It’s built on Supabase (RLS for privacy) and Deno Edge Functions. No tracking, no ads. Just a place to actually read
