Linkz.ai reduces website carbon footprint by displaying cached hyperlink previews on the original website. Link previews save energy associated with web server processing, network transmission, and webpage rendering when visiting a hyperlinked webpage.

I think we might need to discuss this one internally. We don't want to get into the habit of marketing tools or providing free advertising. We'd need to see real evidence of energy savings etc. I suggest we sit on this PR and discuss at the next Open Source WG...

Make sense. One idea is to consider another category of tools that are not directly advertised as environmental, but have a positive energy impact when compared with the status quo.
