[feature] reverse image search #300

Open ShawnNogi opened 3 years ago

ShawnNogi commented 3 years ago

I'd like an option to do a google reverse image search privately such as via drag and drop or upload option. There's no context menu for right clicking on chromium browsers to reverse image search as well, so I suppose that would require an extension maybe which might not be something you want to do. I know tineye is private but the results are not as good as google.

The main problem with this is that we would somehow need to be able to reverse engineer what API Google is using for its upload, because I'm pretty sure it's not exposed publicly. There are of course, a lot of other problems, but that's just the start.
