      Why can’t you easily search all of the text you read on any screen (desktop + mobile) over the past day? It’s strange how much obvious, low-hanging fruit of this form still exists.

      I’ve long wanted a “recall engine”. A search engine, but only for things you’ve read.

      Maybe you could build this as a web proxy server that you configured all your devices to use.

          Yeah. Feels to me that it should just hook into the text rendering engine and/or display driver. Literally anything that was on-screen. Shouldn’t be too hard to prototype on desktop...

          I think there are some security concerns? Even if encrypted, it might retain secrets that have to be manually pruned, which is cumbersome.

          If the data was only stored locally and retained for only N days, I'd be comfortable having it see everything. Lots of code executing on my laptop already gets to "see" everything.

          The original suggestion of “past day” is indeed quite reasonable.

          I wrote a chrome extension that saves the rendered dom of every site I visit and does text extraction. Have only used the data for visualization (not retrieval) but the patterns over the years are fascinating.pic.twitter.com/Yeq4kMmfSL

          But yea, screenshot => OCR => index every 2s would be a killer app for me.

          I don't think you can actually do this due to proliferation of certificate pinning.
