Wow, you're right. Searching works fine in Safari (desktop) but requires a plugin when you visit the same page in Chrome.

I want to like this, but this move seems like just another scummy "growth hack".

This feedback is so common in all the threads here that I can only wonder why someone would so gloriously sabotage their own product.

It's a bit needy. Maybe give people a chance to try it out on their own terms instead of forcing them to commit right off the bat?

Hey, thanks for the feedback. We dropped the requirement to install the extension. We're open on all browsers now. Happy searching or trying :)
