#2> No unuseful, duplicated, overridden, or longhand CSS
How does this differ from doing Cmd-Shift-C, selecting an element, and checking the Computed tab in Dev Tools?

Hi, @lelandfe, there's an answer for that on our FAQ:
* How is this better than "Computed Styles"? > When you copy CSS from “Computed Styles”, aside from the declarations being longhand and bloated, it transforms all measurement units such as %, em, rem in pixels (px). This could break your website on mobile devices.
"Computed Styles" also don’t give you pseudo-classes, pseudo-elements, media queries, and keyframes styles, and don't copy multiple elements at once. CSS Scan does, and it gives you the original units and everything you need effortlessly.

#4I can't think of a use case where I'd need to copy someone else's (probably messy) CSS. I assume this is aimed at beginners?

#6looks like a product aimed at junior devs, who don't know how to use DevTools
also "Save 59% - Product Hunt Launch Deal - only until July 21st" sounds sketchy AF
i don't buy anything from websites with countdowns or fake discounts

They claim to do a bunch of optimizations to remove the mess:

Hi! You could still use the extension to quickly inspect things, to understand how other websites are designed, or you could also use on your own website when debugging CSS or making fast edits (it's possible to edit the CSS with the extension).

#10First of all, kudos to you for building and shipping a product that you can charge for. The website looks really good and polished. I don’t mind the countdown and introductory pricing. If people find it useful, this should definitely help with conversion. Good luck!
