> This one was a fail: it took 180+ seconds (vs. around 60 seconds of previous query), then some thumbnails got smaller (not all), while the physical space and padding for each entry was still there (so no real density was gained from the change)
Did you try updating that one (click the New Modification drop to select or Library -> click Modify)? It's not always perfect on the first attempt but a follow up can often help.
> Right now, it feels like a very slow iteration process where I write something, it doesn't get it, and I keep trying to refine it and waiting around 60 to 100 seconds between results.
There is a push and pull here. We've spent a lot of time evaluating models and pipelines for this. We can make generation much faster but the results will be worse (so faster iteration, but more required). We can also make generation much better (e.g. if you give me 5 minutes, we can do a bunch of post processing: manually selector validation, LLM-as-a-judge, even test the whole thing in something like playwright). In practice, we chose something in the middle, but everyone's preference is different. We do have a "fast" vs "smart" mode but so far it seems like people just rely on the default ("smart"). Of course, as we keep improving, our goal is to make it much faster and smarter.
> I'd also like to see the actual filters that are being generated and applied on each change.
This is possible. Go to the Library tab, scroll down and click Open Options. You'll be able to see the details of all your scripts there. The options page could be improved a lot (you're kind of seeing the plumbing behind the scenes) but hopefully useful for you.
> A collection of curated changes would be useful. My first instinct was to check if there's a gallery of the most common changes that people request to some popular websites.
We're working on more social/discoverability features. You can already share your individual tweeks and curate your own profile of tweeks at www.tweeks.io/share/profile (here's my profile with some examples: www.tweeks.io/share/jason). This is all early. We are also working on a system to surface top scripts for a given site dynamically as your browse different pages. There is a lot of work to do here.
> Changing website contents was out of reach for the general public before, so this extension could become their door to that.
1000% agree with that.
Really appreciate all your feedback, and we're excited to keep improving. You can reach me any time at contact@trynextbyte.com or https://www.tweeks.io/discord if you have more questions/feedback :)
