Am I the only person absolutely hates this feature on websites? I highlight where I'm at on the page in the event I get pulled away for whatever reason so I know where I was at in the page. Any JS interaction there drives me insane and I wish no sites did this. If you're going to ask me to share the text, at least make that show up _outside_ the text I'm reading, please.

#24I really like the way Medium creates a "screenshot" when you share highlighted text to Twitter. I thought that's what this was going to be - although this is pretty cool, and it looks like this library makes it really easy to extend and add something like that.

Does anyone know how they do this?

#27Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yeah, someone already pointed that out on Reddit :( Let's see how it develops.
Don't wait to see how it develops, just change the name. The sooner you change the name the better. Besides the old repo URL will still redirect to the new location after you've renamed the repo on GitHub by going into settings and changing it there.
