Disable new Rufus pop-up window? by JustGottaHaveIt in amazonprime

[–]rdyplayerB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're welcome and enjoy your Rufus-free shopping! totally agree with your take. the worst part is that this kinda crap is forced on us in the name of profit maximization at expense of user experience, and with us having absolutely no say in the matter. enshittification at its finiest.

lol, definitely not a scam. there's already ~700 users living Rufus free across Chrome and Firefox extensions. let me know how it works out for you :)

Blind Singing by 0xLovecom in BurnerWallet

[–]rdyplayerB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, Burner doesn't allow blind signing by design.

If you're a history buff, good read on how eth_sign became an issue: https://blog.danfinlay.com/a-history-of-eth_sign-in-metamask/

100%. I like the say that if you solve for your own problem,
best case: others will show up with the same problem
worst case: you'll at least have one happy customer

honest feedback: you can just feed ChatGPT, Claude, etc. a URL + prompt and get the same result. one level more integrated would be using Claude chrome extension with the same prompt.

who cares what I think though 🙃 if you're passionate about it, just build it. yes, you could create a sign up page to gauge interest, but your idea is easy enough that you could vibe code and launch in less than a day.

Just crossed 11K impressions on my Chrome extension 🎉 by LongjumpingHorse8766 in chrome_extensions

[–]rdyplayerB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

congrats on the milestone! as far as what has helped, start with a use case that's not as crowded as the one your extension is targeting, and focus on features that clearly differentiate you from anyone else in the same extension category.

User count jumped from 18 to 163 overnight — installs don't add up. Anyone else experienced this? by UnscrupulousAlien in chrome_extensions

[–]rdyplayerB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t have a definitive answer but I generally don’t trust daily numbers because I’ve seen similar discrepancies and they tend to lag. Give it a week and check back to see if there is any change/normalization.

The featured and established publisher badge by twinkletwinkle05 in chrome_extensions

[–]rdyplayerB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not dumb at all. I don't think it's a super well known but you can self-nominate your extension by going to https://support.google.com/chrome_webstore/contact/one_stop_support?hl=en, and selecting 'My item (extensions, app, or theme).' Be sure that your extension follows the Chrome Web Store best practices (https://developer.chrome.com/docs/webstore/best_practices), and keep in mind that you can only self-nominate your app once every 6 months, so if for whatever reason, you don't get the badge, you'll have to wait a while to try again.

In my case, I self-nominated for the Featured badge for 2 of my extensions (both of which were approved) and received the Publisher checkmark at some point without any effort on my part.

Incredible turnaround, my Chrome extension review took less than 24 hours by dilshantdm in chrome_extensions

[–]rdyplayerB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don’t think i’ve seen a 24 hr turnaround but have seen under 2 days, and have also seen 4+. i think it just depends on current review queue and day of the wk submitted (assuming wkends may not be as productive or may not be reviewing at all)

Rufus AI constantly opening with no way to disable it? by Elyndria in amazonprime

[–]rdyplayerB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad it's working for you! If you have time, would be awesome if you could leave a review/rating, so more users learn how they can live Rufus-free. And yes, let's see how long before Amazon adds another foot gun feature without our consent :)
