Show HN: highlight.cool – add Medium-like highlights to your own blog Hey y'all! I want to share my weekend project https://bit.ly/429U0tr with you. highlight.cool lets your blog readers highlight what they find interesting, where the more interesting parts are bolder and the less interesting parts are lighter. As a reader, I've always enjoyed seeing the highlighted parts of Medium, but wasn't a fan of all the paywalls and that it only showed the top highlight. I'd love to see this feature on more blogs both as a way to be part of the community of readers, as well as give kudos to the writer for parts that I enjoyed reading. I've tried to make it so that it gets out of your way as a reader and is only there when you want to see the highlights. It's also real-time which lets you see what other people are highlighting while you're reading, if that's your thing. It's free for unlimited highlights and blogs, but will have a paid tier to remove branding and allow styling (still working on that!) Happy to answer any questions and get feedback! Thanks!
