How it Works:
The clickbait tool uses a term frequency (TF) statistical algorithm to score the relevance of the link text compared against the text that is shown on the actual linked page. The rationale is that a relevant (i.e. non-clickbait) link would have its text appear frequently on the actual page.
Features:
- Green circle means a likely relevant link
- Red square means a possible clickbait link
- A dashed line indicates the link wasn't analyzed
- Only text based pages are analyzed
- Only links of certain length are analyzed
- Spince also extracts a key sentence as popover
- Ships with customizable blacklist
- Major sites like gmail and aws on blacklist
- Exclude any link to prevent analysis
- Multiple Languages (non-English)
- Enhanced algorithm under development
- No browsing data sent to Spince Links
- Open source code on Github
The tool also works with non-English languages using automatic language detection. The additional languages are German, French, Italian, and Spanish.
The code for Spince Links can be viewed on Github. This is the actual production code submitted to the Google Chrome store. Pull requests for improvements and new features are welcome and appreciated.
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
