- (2025-07-09) Zecento: Love the concept. Hopefully it's effective to plant trees
- (2025-07-06) AJ Beandip: The developer claims to vet the sites their extension sends traffic to, but for 3 days straight I was subjected to mysterious (and definitely unwanted) downloads or random Trojans while I had this extension active--even with NoScript and adblock active and while visiting trustworthy, tracker-free sites like the Tor Project or Mastodon. Uninstall immediately if you have this extension, and stay away if you don't.
- (2025-05-26) Skeere huisen: the own impact counter stops at 2, but in the dev tools console I it works, so if that is fixed, it will be 5 stars
