Asking money every second like this extension being made by a bunch of beggars, who had 80 children to feed in their homes - literally.
I mean I'm okay to tolerate an absolute beggars and capitalistic swine, but this ones are beyond my comprehension...

It's a great extension; I love it. But, I can't keep the sidebar thing on my screen at all times, which means I won't have any grammar suggestions of fixes without it on the screen.

I love that I can edit while I'm writing. It's actually taught me a lot about grammar and not to use those "filler" words. I use it every time I write.

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.
ProWritingAid: Grammar Checker & Paraphrasing Tool requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always
