My criticism of it too. In particular, it lacks an iOS app for its notes - which is I think an essential if you use an iPhone or iPad alongside your Mac.

Unclutter does lack an iOS app, true, but it’s easy enough to set its home folder to iCloud/Dropbox and then use the text editor of your choice.

I’ve done exactly that - which is why I’d love to see Markdown support, since all my favourite iOS text editors also support Markdown.

Curiota could also do with an iOS app, although I use Readdle’s Documents to act as a kind of substitute. Not ideal, though.

Interesting list. I haven’t heard of many of them! The main extensions I have turned on in Chrome are

• 1Password
• Allow Right-Click
• AutoMute
• Autopagerize
• BehindTheOverlay
• Dark Reader
• Decentraleyes
• Disable HTML5 Autoplay
• EXIF Viewer
• Flashcontrol
• Fontanello
• Google Voice

• OneTab
• PhishProtect Beta
• Reddit Enhancement Suite
• RSS Subscription Extension

And I periodically turn on some extensions when occasionally needed, like AnyList Recipe Import, or Full Page Screen Capture, or Image Downloader, or DotPUB (which converts any webpage into an ePUB), or Ebates (and/or Honey) when shopping.
