I love this extension, it does exactly what I want but now that I have two computers it's much less useful to me as I can't find a way to sync this across my devices. If this could just read/write to a Google Drive file, this would be very helpful. (I'm willing to pay for this, I don't expect work like this to be completely free)

Love it :) It would be cool if there were a few different ways to backup notes. The current way is nice bc its private but a bit awkward w/ the save dialog popping up. Maybe connect to something like gdrive? Or even a very cheap / secure seamless paid option? Not sure.
