User Reviews
Users find the add-on useful and generally functional, with channel-mapping and a Watching tab/window. However, the main recurring issues are unreliable chat replacement and missing Twitch features due to the browser-embedded Chatterino, along with trade-offs in functionality versus the standalone client. Pros
- Generally works well and is useful.
- Tells Chatterino which Twitch channel you are watching.
- Provides a Watching tab and a separate Chatterino window while still allowing the default Twitch chat for features not supported by Chatterino.
Cons
- Replace Twitch chat toggle is unreliable: chat is replaced unexpectedly or requires constant toggling off/on.
- Embedding Chatterino in the browser hides or removes Twitch features (polls, raids) that aren’t supported by Chatterino.
- In-browser integration (instead of managing standalone windows) can limit functionality compared to the standalone client.

Will tell chatterino which channel you're watching. But the on/off toggle to replace chat does not work so you have to constantly close a second instance of chatterino/ toggle it. (Both chrome and mozilla extension)

Is Chatterino Native Host Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Chatterino Native Host requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
