It's a browser extension that lets you write sticky notes on top of websites.

I wonder if it makes any sense to ask if complexity and criticality are inextricable?

I appreciate the comment.

In my mind, the sync feature for this app is less about backup and more about maintaining a single instance across multiple computers/browsers.

I don't know. The main hurdle for me is the $99 / year fee that's required

FYI extensions don't need a network permission to make network requests.

There's an option in Firefox to disable auto-updates for an extension.

Not as easy in Chrome, but there's ways to do it. For example here's one: https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/chromium-extensio...

There's a way to get Chrome extensions working in Safari. I haven't tried it out though.

Thanks for the feedback.

I realize the mobile UX is terrible. It's only designed for desktop, for now.

And yea, the security issue is tough. I'll see if I can reduce the required permissions.

Thanks for the comment. It's a valid concern.

Chrome and Firefox have a review team for their extension marketplace, though I believe there are instances of malicious extensions getting through anyway.

And while rather labor intensive, another path toward vetting is examining the source code. I haven't obfuscated it, and Googling for "view extension source code" has many results.

And for what it's worth, I can give an assurance that I'm not a bad actor.

Ah, I misread the Google results. Looks neat, I'll take a look.

I'm quite unfamiliar with Web3 so can't say that I do.

Unfortunately Apple has substantially more hoops to jump through in order to publish to the Safari extension store. Maybe in the future.
