Do y'all know about textise? I don't see mention of it come up in a quick search. https://www.textise.net/

It can be used with the duckduckgo bang !textise

It also works over Tor, where I can use it as a proxy to avoid Cloudflare checkpoints.

I don't think that it is open source but not completely sure.

Copy from the site intro:

Textise is a new way of looking at the Web. It’s an internet tool that removes everything from a web page except for its text. In practice, this means that images, forms, scripts, adverts, they all go, leaving plain text. Find out more here... (https://textise.wordpress.com/about-textise/)

How to use this page

  1. Type or paste the URL of a web page into the box below and click "Textise". A text only version of the web page will be displayed.
  2. Type a search term into the box, select a search engine from the drop-down list, and click "Search". You will be taken to a text only version of the search results.

It's a service.

It's a service given to you for free by a company with no apparant way of generating income.

Would you think about that, please?

You’re the product.

To be fair, some developers do it for fun and it costs next to nothing to host it. If it blows up, devs might start to monetize it.

They do offer paid commercial services for webmasters. A lot of the mission seems to focus on accessibility. As of 2013, the State of Oregon was one such client.

I don’t think it’s suspicious.
