Going to be less obnoxious on Firefox, thanks to chrome for beta testing.

Monetization is needed, among other things, to pay for operating the extension.

Only advanced new features are paid - what you had for free is still free, and will always be free

All other extensions\apps with dislikes are using my API - with the api dying due to lack of funds - all other apps will die as well.

Unfortunately the extension requires quite a large database (~15TB) serivng 20 million unique daily users (chrome is not the only platform) - and it costs money.


The idea behind paid features was also to cover the costs (since donations became smaller than the hosting costs). Without bothering free users too much.

Yeah, sorry about that. The changelog tab was supposed to be shown on browser restart - i.e be much less intrusive.

Chrome users just beta tested it for Firefox. Hopefully will go smoother here.
