Not sure about other folks, but I'd never trust a privacy-friendly tag on an indie software that's not open-source. Even for popular and trusted software (e.g., Obsidian) it gives me chills.

Totally get it — open source definitely helps build trust. That said, getting the Chrome Web Store Featured Badge means the extension passed their strict review, including privacy rules.
Privacy and Chrome are incompatible with one another.
Fair take. Everyone has different privacy thresholds, and that’s totally fine. Just sharing the tool for those who find it useful.
