Sarah Rainsberger (ID: 000000c767b72969) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/04/2023 This has made managing an open source project so much easier in Linear! This extension is open source, and the developer is very responsive to issues and feature requests. Just file a GitHub issue! I've already had a few of my suggestions implemented in the extension.
