hey, made this for myself because i kept sending messages i regretted later. 3am tweets, passive-aggressive replies, the usual.

it's a chrome extension. when you hit send on twitter or reddit, you get a 10-second countdown to either cancel or send anyway.

the part that makes it actually usable: it only triggers on risky messages. long stuff, ALL CAPS, words you flagged ("really", "hate", "quit"...), or sent between 10pm and 5am. short "ok" / "lol" replies go through without bothering you.

100% local, no account, no tracking.

still polishing it before submitting to the chrome store, but i'd love feedback. specifically:

- does the "smart mode" thing make sense or would you actually want a delay on every message?

- besides twitter and reddit where do you regret-send the most? curious what to add next

heyyyyy 3 weeks ago i almost sent a passive-aggressive "ok cool" to my Boss at 11pm. caught myself in time. realized this happens to me like weekly so i built a thing for it.

it's called cooldown. when you hit post/send/tweet, a small modal pops up with a countdown (10s by default). you can cancel or send anyway. that's it.

the part i actually like about it: it doesn't trigger on every message. that would be insanely annoying. it only kicks in when the message is:

- long

- in all caps

- has a "trigger word" you defined (mine are "really", "hate", "quit")

- or just at night (auto night mode between 10pm-5am)

short stuff like "ok" or "lol" passes through silently. you forget the extension exists 90% of the time.

works on twitter/x and reddit. nothing else for now. linkedin was on my list but their composer is in an iframe and it was a pain so i dropped it.

100% local, no backend, no account. ~30kb total.

couple of things i'd love feedback on:

1. does the "smart mode" thing make sense to you or would you actually want a delay on every message?

2. besides reddit and twitter where do you regret-send the most? trying to figure what to add next

happy to answer anything about the build
