What do you clean your windows with?
Current blanketweed/Algae bloom, what does everyone use for the inside of their windows? Anything at Amazon?
Anyone used this? https://www.amazon.co.uk/OXO-Good-Gr.../dp/B00L9X4WCE

As long as you have glass (and not acrylic) it won't scratch the window, well it's not scratched mine.
The extendable pole is handy, it's just long enough for me to reach the bottom of my window (70cm high) without getting my hands in the water (pretty handy in the winter ). Although you might want to consider something else if the bottom of your window is much deeper than this.
The material is a bit like a hard plastic sponge material. It's fairly firm.
What I would say is is great for keeping the glass clear through occasional use. I do mine about once a month, maybe a bit more frequently in Summer. But if you let any algae get established on the glass, then it might struggle to shift that.
I'd also second getting a squeegee too. Being able to have the glass dry without any residue marks on the outside really finishes it, and only takes seconds to do.

i've seen people on youtube polishing the outside of there galss with microfibre cloths,
my fish are constantly splashing water over the edge leaving watermarks down the glass.
i reckon they do it on purpose...everytime they do a big splash of water i come running...
i give the ouside glass a quick scrub with the brush, and then just squeegee the excess water away,
the squeegee is good for the odd stubborn bit of algae on the inside of the glass too.
but if i didn't already have the brush, the oxo scrubber looks good.

I also uses the Oxo scrubber, works well on both sides and a dry cloth to clean off the front.
