Paul Ginsberg (ID: 000000ec5e370388) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/24/2023 Simple and helpful plugin. Sometimes things don't have to be overcomplicated! If you remove the extension it deletes all the data/notes it has saved so don't do that 😅 As I (later) discovered, it uses Sync Storage, so if you install/move to Chrome on another computer, the data will still be visible.
