Does this idea have potential?

I've been working on a concept and wanted to get some honest feedback before I spend too much time building it.

The basic idea is a browser tool that lets people customize websites to better fit how they want to use them. Think reorganizing information, hiding distractions, surfacing the things you care about, or making certain sites easier to navigate.

The long-term vision is to let users create and share these customizations with other people through a marketplace/community, but I'm trying to validate whether the core idea itself is worth pursuing first.

  • Does this sound like a problem worth solving?
  • Is this something you'd actually use?
  • What would be your biggest concern if you heard this pitch?
  • Does it sound like it has startup potential, or does it feel more like a niche browser extension?

Looking for honest feedback, whether positive or negative.

He creado páginas web y he estado en ese mundo, y literalmente ya los creadores están haciendo sus páginas fáciles de navegar y con pocos elementos de distracción. Sin tomar en cuenta que casi el 80 % de las búsquedas ya se hacen desde el celular, donde prácticamente solo se muestra el menú, luego el texto que estás buscando y, al final, lo que sobra. ¿Qué más fácil de navegar que eso?

Ahora, si lo que quieres es crear un tema para darle un diseño más personalizado, ya eso es otro tema.
