Another 5 star review. Works great on TPB but since there are a lot of other mirror sites with similar names it would have been useful to find an add on that can take any magnet link and send it to transmission. But this solves 90% of the use case and does it all in 1 button. Solid 6/5 extension

Is Magnet linker 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.
Magnet linker requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
