I built a browser tool that removes small daily frustrations

# Click-Line

I got tired of fighting my browser, so I built this

While working and browsing daily, I kept running into the same tiny frustrations:

  • Missing letters while selecting text
  • Constantly reaching for browser back/forward buttons
  • Awkward zoom shortcuts
  • Repetitive copy/search actions

So I built a small extension called Click-Line to reduce those little friction points.

Features

  • Smart text selection (auto-snaps to full words)
  • Mouse gesture navigation
    • Hold Right Button + Click Left → Back
    • Hold Left Button + Click Right → Forward
  • Mouse scroll zoom
  • Quick Copy / Search / Paste popup
  • Multi-selection support
  • Link copy with Alt + Drag

It works across websites, editors, chats, docs, and more.

  • No tracking
  • No accounts
  • Everything runs locally

Honestly, these are small improvements individually, but together they made browsing feel noticeably smoother after a few days of use.

Would love feedback from people who spend a lot of time in browsers, coding, researching, or writing.
