The extensions I would recommend are - Whatfont: Find the name of any font used on a website - Wordtune : Edit and proofread (this is a paid app, worth every penny) - Toby : Bookmark app - Wappalyzer : Find what tech stack they are using on a website What's your recommendation?

Is it true that chrome extensions are sometimes considered as a software category, of a kind?

@nadenade They're legit, of course. Developers seem to do many of these for fun, but there are hundreds of extensions that make a decent amount of profit.

Trying to understand what are the benefits (for a founder) to use a service in a chrome browser specifically. Instead of using it in a mobile app or a browser or whatever

@nadenade One of the benefit of using chrome extension is that you can use it over the top of other websites. For example, I use blackmagic.so over twitter.com and it provides simple CRM, Analytics and many useful features over the twitter.

Grammarly, not a CEO or anything but being a solo maker it's a lot of content writing, e-mailing, and tweeting, Grammarly automatically fixing it all up is a life-saver.

I love the SEO meta in 1 click. Helps me a lot to take care of my website and simplifies SEO for the ones who are not experts.
