Stop asking for donations and fix and update your addon to comply with the new chrome demands. It's really not that hard. It's not like your extension was doing THAT much anyways.

Extension safety

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.

Social Fixer for Facebook requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
