Interesting! Usually when I share links on slack, it goes like this: 1. Copy the website URL 2. Paste into slack 3. Go back to website and copy a relevant passage 4. Paste as code, so it's clear that it's a citation 5. Add my own comment 6. Post.

So if I could bring that down to 1. Select text 2. Open extension 3. Enter my own comment 4. Post, this could potentially save me some time

Author here. I was surprised not to find a good extension to share to slack quickly (that also supports multiple workspaces), so we put together a simple extension for Chrome/Firefox for that. In future planning to add to Safari and some features like screenshots, text selection and so on. Any feedback is appreciated
