Feature description

Hi, would be amazing if we have an option to collect anonymously data from Alby users of sites with v4v/lightning addresses. So we could show on Discover page, profiles of twitter, Youtube channels and sites. On Discover page could have filter tags like: Twitter profiles, Youtube channels, Sites, Recommended services.

Describe the solution

Option to Alby extension collect anonymously data of pages Alby users browse and collect and show for all other users the sites with v4v/lightning and show on Discover page as a directory.

Describe alternatives

No response

Additional context

Brave has something like this: https://bravebat.info/creators/twitter but I think they use data of verified users to be able to collect the data.

Are you working on this?

No

And not only v4v/lightning addresses but sites where users used to make lightning payments too.

Probably might be appreciated to explicitly ask if a user wants to "share this v4v website" with other Alby users.

Yes, an option on settings. But I don't see why not if the data will be anonymously sent.
