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 Live RSS Bookmarks

Live RSS Bookmarks mimics Firefox's old live bookmarks feature (removed since 2018). It does this by syncing bookmarks inside a folder for each RSS feed. This extension was previously called Foxish but was re-written to support Chrome Manifest v3. At this time it was simplified since Chrome no longer limits bookmark access like it did in the past and efforts were made to future proof it. Source code can be found at https://github.com/davidhampgonsalves/Live-RSS-Bookmarks. ⚠️ Bookmark syncing between multiple devices will cause duplicate folders and is not supported.
