Piotr Chróściel (ID: 000000e8080289ab) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/04/2024 This extension is great, thanks for creating it! Can we please have a setting to make a note translucent?

Miguel Noreña (ID: 000000fa1b465d4c) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 08/22/2023 Your extension is very good. Could you add opacity and the direct option in the note to change the color? If you incorporate image support, it would become a superb application. I believe that many of us would buy it without hesitation thanks for make it very use full

Eleo F (ID: 000000984c0a8fbc) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/14/2023 The only one which supports Regexes. That deserves a hug and a big Thanks.

Data Two (ID: 0000006336e7cee6) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/11/2023 I really wanted to like this. It had everything I needed, was simple on the eyes and wasn't over run with too many options except. . . I cannot use the numbers or the 1st row of keys on my keyboad to type anything into the sticky. No numbers, none of the letters in the row beginning with 'Q' will work. So, I'm sad.

Ahmed Rih (ID: 000000d159b5c037) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/21/2022 Best one of all stickies I tried, It gets my not-easy-to-satisfy approval. Simple, sync option, and not bloated or distracting.. could use some visual polishing ;)
