That's not the website doing web scraping, it's the server. This is likely the reason.

Barrier is unmaintained, input-leap is maintained for of it, but with no releases yet. Not sure if it supports wayland better tho.

I don't think websites can do web scraping.

Take a look at this wiki page and this file in this repo. There's this item in the file:

  "Summarize This": {
    "regex1": "^(https?):\/\/(\\S*)$",
    "regex": "^(?!.*(smmry.))(.*)",
    "replacement": "https:\/\/smmry.com\/$2#&SM_LENGTH=10",
    "enabled": "true"
  }

Looks like exactly what you want.

The app, URLCheck, is absolutely awesome btw. I have it set as my default browser and now every time I open an url, I can choose which app should open it. And if it's a web browser, I can choose whether I want to open it in the browser tab or in the custom tab in the app. And it can do much more. But you don't have to set it as a default browser, you can just share to it.

The only difference I can see is that you might have for example four windows 1, 2, 3, 4, all taking half of the screen. On a compositor like Niri, you can scroll so that you can see windows 1 and 2, or 2 and 3, or 3 and 4. On vertically scrolling one, you can see 1 and 2 or 3 and 4 if I understand it correctly. This is much more noticeable if you work with many smaller windows, just like on the screenshots from the article and repo's readme. I usually use only one or two windows per virtual desktop, so what you suggest would be more practical for me. But I use only notebook, and I can imagine using Niri on some hi-res ultrawide monitor.

URLCheck can do it with its pattern checker module.

Well, it's not if it's the actual code Steam shipped with on thumbnail.

That's something different. This compositor's concept is that you have line of windows that you scroll through, as you can see on the screenshots. You always see part of the line, and the part you see usually contains multiple windows. If the line is vertical as you suggests, you wouldn't usually be able to fit multiple windows on the monitor, because normal monitor is horizontal and apps are much better resizable horizontally. If you want to view two webpages at once on horizontal monitor, do you tile them vertically or horizontally?

zotify is the only one I know about that downloads directly from spotify. FOSS of course.

I think that vertical scrolling would make sense on vertical monitors.

That's what I thought until I installed Firefox with Sidebery and oh man, that's another level. It required quite a bit of configuration make it really fit my needs, but when you configure it, it's incredible.
