The Chrome Web Store rounds user counts down to the leading digit, so the user line moves in steps. The ratings count is exact and is the better signal of real adoption.

About Embolden

A reading assistant for people with reading difficulty. A selection of text can be fetched from any page open in a browser and presented in an extension window; divided into easy to read segments, with the first letter of each word made bold. The color scheme has also been optimised to be the most readable contrast possible.
