"Federal Trade Commission | Protecting America's Consumers" - what about the rest of the world? Does anyone know whether it makes sense to exercise this option for non-American citizens?

I can't log in into my Google account either. And yeah, the account was free (money-wise) - judging by FTC's forms, the paid accounts are the ones that matter.


Most countries have an equivalent body and given Google operates globally they could help.


Might be worth trying since Google is headquartered in the US. More complaints on the pile get more attention.


Well done tool, thanks!

I used the system fonts at https://scrabble-solver.org and got a small performance improvement (from ~70% to ~80%) in PageSpeed Insights on mobile.

Noticeably it got my Largest Contentful Paint down from ~3.5s to ~2.2s.

It's open-source too: https://github.com/kamilmielnik/scrabble-solver

I never intended it to make any money though. What brings me a lot of joy is that some people showed genuine interest in this project.


I got Scrabble as a Christmas gift about 20 years ago and I immediately fell in love with it.

Fast forward 20 years and now I have a Scrabble Solver app (open source) in my portfolio that I'm proud of. It still needs improvements to run nicely on mobile but I'm happy with how it runs on desktop.

Maybe someone will find it useful, so I'm sharing here :)

That's a really nice front-end! Really good code structure and dev practices too to my JS-nooby eye at least.

A recommendation for the solver part, it seems your using a word trie instead of the more common directed acyclic word graph (DAWG) or the much faster GADDAG. GADDAGs are really cool, +2x faster lookup than DAWGs at 5x space for common Scrabble dictionaries? Even today's CPU cache sizes fit an English GADDAG with ease. [1]

I am working on a project for reinforcement learning for Scrabble, hoping to learn advanced strategies. When I need a front-end, I will definitely reference your project.

This is awesome, I'm surely going to try this. Thank you.

Is your project shared somewhere? I enjoy anything Scrabble-related.

Happy to hear!


This is beautiful :) Thanks for sharing!

Nice work, good job! I like the pastel colors and the design.

We run https://websktop.com which also can be used as a new tab page (it's even faster with our Chrome extension) but it's not as "dynamic" - just your bookmarks.


or websktop.com


Might want to try Websktop as well if Raindrop is not up your alley.

Have you tried websktop.com?


Yes, mobile Firefox was great until version ~60 something. You could install all the extensions from the store. But now there's like only 18 extensions for mobile.

But there is another way to organize bookmarks like one would expect.

_shameless plug_

You can use Websktop webapp for this. That way you'll have a fully customizable grid of bookmarks. It could look like this:
