User reviews

The biggest advantage of this extension is that it’s open-source. If you’re curious about how it works, you can dive into the code, ask questions, report bugs, or even suggest new features. It’s straightforward and minimalistic, but it gets the job done, which is exactly what I appreciate about it. Perfect for anyone who values transparency and functionality over flashy features
