Maybe not related to this post. Why does daily have to be run as an extension, not via a web address? I have other important extensions that I cannot give up to use Daily.

Hi! We provide an opinionated solution for developers so they can consume content with zero-effort.
We know that a browser extension is not the perfect solution for everyone but it did help a lot of other developers read more news and stay up-to-date. We might consider in the far future developing a web version as well but it's currently not in the roadmap.

Thank you for your response. Daily seems pretty useful source for aggregated tech news. I hope there will be a web version in the future. I have it in Firefox as an alternative to Chrome.
