The biggest problem is the "trust" that users have with the Apple News ecosystem. They pay for it too!

I built a browser plugin called "Visionary" that overlays meaningful descriptions and context directly onto stunning pictures of the day.

I noticed that existing picture-of-the-day plugins were built over two decades ago and never evolved to harness the capabilities of modern artificial intelligence. AI can transform the picture viewing experience by distilling complex descriptions into accessible insights and providing references to explore the core concepts in the photo more deeply.

You can get a sense of how this works by visiting https://picture.learntosolveit.com

How does displaying the webview increase the traffic? Is it because when you scroll through the site, even if you have not openeded the link, it gets opened in the background and counts a visit?

Thanks for making this avialable.

I am Linux (ZorinOS, FTW) and I use SoundScape https://github.com/ddanilov/soundscape

There is https://freesound.org/ which can provide a multitude of free sounds too.
