## Description

OurStickys is a free Chrome extension that allows you to add persistent sticky notes on any webpage. These notes reappear every time you revisit the page, syncing seamlessly between browsers using the same account. Customize your notes with different colors, font sizes, positions, and sizes to fit your needs. Features include minimizing notes, tagging (beta), real-time editing across devices, pinning notes to ignore scrolling, and converting stickies into to-do lists or formatted JSON strings.

Designed for developers, teachers, students, and teams, OurStickys streamlines communication by letting you leave and share notes directly on webpages without needing to switch tools or tabs. The extension respects your privacy by not storing sensitive information or sharing your data, and it is completely ad-free. With support for PDFs, drag-and-drop text, embedded YouTube videos, shortcut keys, and upcoming features like password-protected channels and reminders, OurStickys enhances your web browsing and collaboration experience.

## Review summary

OurStickys is praised for its functionality in allowing persistent sticky notes on web pages that remain visible during scrolling and offer customization. However, multiple users report that since the original developer passed away, there have been no official updates, resulting in poor compatibility with recent Firefox versions. Users experience issues editing notes, problems loading complex websites, and conflicts with certain platforms. Some have created and shared updated versions themselves to fix these problems.

- Notes stick while scrolling, enhancing usability while browsing.
- Offers several options and settings for customizing notes.
- Effective for taking notes directly on websites.

### Cons

- The original developer passed away, leading to lack of updates and support.
- The add-on has compatibility issues with newer Firefox versions, including scrolling and editing problems within notes.
- Some websites with complex content do not load properly when the add-on is active, making the add-on unusable for some users.
