Hey HN!

I’m Iqbal, and I’d like to share Honest, a browser extension that helps users find valid coupon codes through a community-driven approach.

Why Honest? I recently watched this Honey affiliate code scam breakdown (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vc4yL3YTwWk), and it got me thinking: What if we had a coupon finder that didn’t secretly steal affiliate commissions?

I wanted something transparent and open — no dark patterns, no hidden agendas. Honest solves this by crowdsourcing coupon verification.

- Users submit coupon codes. - The community votes on whether they work. - Codes are ranked by reliability, with invalid ones filtered out automatically.

The result? No more expired or fake deals. At least what I hope for haha

I know recent work already done, and posted here too, but I want to challenge myself too, because why not :D

It's still in the early stages and would love some feedback!
