Show HN: Piles – zero-interaction web clipping

[lakrizz]

I built Piles, a simple browser extension that lets you save highlighted text instantly as notes.

No tags, no categories, no formatting — just highlight your text → save in piles → keep reading.

Setup takes less than a minute: enter your email, click the link, install the extension, done.

Would love to hear your feedback, ideas, or critique.

I'm sure you are going for the meaning:

"a quantity of things or people heaped together"

(Plural of).

But "piles" also means "hemorrhoid" and when you Google that's the first definition you find.

oh wow - not being a native speaker and never googling the term didn't help, but it is what it is, i guess. nevertheless: thanks for the info!
