How to choose
Match the extension to your main friction: research overload favors sidebars like WebBrain, while tab chaos points to Focus Limit or StashPile. Check permission scope first—extensions touching forms or AI calls carry higher data risk. Avoid stacking multiple AI sidebars; they overlap and slow the browser. Test one workflow at a time instead of installing everything listed.
