Show HN: SlopWatch - A browser extension to rate webpages with AI content

Hey guys!

With an increase in AI-generated content (a.k.a "Slop"), I made a Chrome extension to help people identify it online.

It's sort of a like a rating system on how "slop"-y a page is, and you get to see other people's ratings to determine if the content is AI or not.

Go ahead and check it out on the Chrome Web Store, and let me know what you think!
