AO3 Floaty Comment Box (Responsive) is a userscript created to facilitate commenting while reading on archiveofourown - specifically for mobile browsing. The idea is that the user can comment on the fly, without needing to scroll down to the bottom while reading, or wait until having read the whole story to jot down a thought or feeling or favorite quote. The script provides two buttons in the right bottom corner of the page, one of which can insert selected text in the comment box, and the other can toggle a floating copy of the comment box that can be minimized and expanded. Inserted text will be synced with the real comment box below.

Floaty Comment Box was directly inspired (with permission) by an AO3 userscript originally developed by ravenel.

Other similar scripts might exist, but I wrote this to have personal control over the features and to make it as responsive to mobile needs as posisble.
