Tolon: A Browser Extension for Finding Website Discussions
Tolon is a free browser extension developed by raywan that aims to help users find discussions related to the webpages they are browsing. Available on the Chrome platform, Tolon works by searching various sources for URL submissions and presenting a list of results to the user.
When you open the Tolon extension while viewing a webpage, it will search available sources such as Hacker News and Reddit for any discussion threads related to the URL. This allows users to easily find and join ongoing conversations about the content they are interested in.
Tolon is primarily built using JavaScript, with a touch of CSS. It is worth noting that the extension does not include any trackers and no data is sent or shared, apart from the page URL query. For those interested, all of the code for Tolon can be inspected on GitHub.
If you're looking to engage in discussions or discover conversations surrounding the webpages you visit, Tolon provides a simple and convenient solution.
