Amazed at this concept - but would love if it worked on text fields outside of Gmail, in the same way as Grammarly does. Imposter syndrome exists out side of gmail too! ;) Does this make sense?

Love the idea, but cannot get it to work. I have Gmail...I have the extension installed and all settings are turned on. I don't understand why it's not working.

This extension is excellent. I haven't had any trouble with Gmail speed while using it.

I used to love this, but over the last few weeks Gmail had been slowing to a crawl, only in Chrome, so I'd been using other broswers for Gmail - and was considering switching off Chrome altogether. Started turning extensions off and on, and discovered Just Not Sorry was the culprit :( If your Gmail is running INSANELY slowly to the point of not working, trying turning this extension off. A shame!

It works, but it isn't nearly as intuitive as plugins like Grammarly. It only picks up on certain words and ignores the context. For example, it always underlines the word SORRY, whether you're starting a sentence with Sorry or if you're sorry someone's grandma died. Don't get it.
