Yomi: Latest in Tech on Every New Tab, an open-source extension project, converts Chrome's new tab into a focused tech-news dashboard. It delivers a ranked feed of developer articles and community threads inside each new tab, with in-place reading and integrated comment viewing for quick context. The extension highlights de-duplicated ranking and advanced filters, plus optional end-to-end encrypted sync, for software engineers and privacy-conscious professionals who want a compact, distraction-minimizing way to follow technical trends.
