Extension summary

Ever get frustrated that every time you use the internet you get caught in a never-ending rabbit warren of articles, listicles, endless tabs and never-ending video binge sessions?

Yeh me too, but I god damn I love the internet.

Like a lot. It is the centre of my business and the thing I interact with the most outside of my family.

I hate how opening my internet browser (I use chrome, along with half the planet.) meant wasting hours flipping aimlessly through tabs on an information gathering journey.

As the years went by I felt trapped by the internet but started to wonder if it wasn't the apps, social networks and actual browsers themselves that made it hard to leave.

They are feats of engineering and those good looking people that design it all are using consumer psychology in their product design I tell ya! (Tin Foil Hat) They are part of the reason we can't leave and are trapped here! Send help 🥺

My daily routine is all about amping myself up to be positive and focused only to end up in a browser and lost in an endless loop of low productivity output.

In frustration, I went to Google (shock horror, its literally my solution for every problem) and was welcomed by quick-fix promises of mastering productivity and mastering my time management. 🤓

Thank you, it does seem to have a lot of features to help me stay organized. As far as the EDIT NOTE as someone else mentioned, no it doesn't work, so the NOTES you make are PERMANENT, but luckily I found this out right at the beginning while testing it out. But keeping that in mind, to work around this bug, I could uninstall and reinstall this extension if I need to dump a bunch of old NOTES that I no longer need. Keep it mind that will clean the slate clean and erase everything but you will still have a great organizer. Thank you for the organizer.
