Thanks, what about homepage https://comment.ws? What do you find difficult here? Would appreciate your or anyone else's feedback!

I honestly have no idea what this website does or what its purpose is. Is it for commenting? I couldn't figure that out. It seems like you've glued together various websites and search engines into a single page. Why would I use this?

Thank you for the feedback. Yes we are for commenting. We will try to make that obvious with UI changes. You are right that we are using Bing, Twitter, Youtube etc. They frictionlessly provide good content to users. We are also building our own features. Hopefully they will be our usp

It's not like I'm thinking "Ah, just remove that thing over there, move this little thing down a bit and maybe make that thing bigger." I'm thinking "What the hell am I actually looking at?". That's what difficult.

Hope you don't get offended, just being honest. Too many people are spending energy on useless things instead of working on real solutions to real problems. That is a problem.

I'm not entirely sure what comment.ws does from the website. Its a bunch of vaguely familiar faces and logo. A page that gives a 1 sentence explanation of the site will be cool. Hope that's helpful

Thanks for the feedback, please refer to my answer above

Your website seemingly doesn't load at all for me. Firefox on Win7 with uBlock Origin and Disconnect plugins. Just shows a search bar that doesn't work and the rest of the page is blank.

Sorry, will look into it.
