Comment on Lessons learnt from monetising my Chrome Extensionparent

Comments

I've definitely been curious as to how much the sales would change if I had made it closed sourced.

However I'm happy to take the loss in sales to enable technical enough users to be able to mess with the source code & (hopefully) send some code back to the repo ;)

May not much differences I think. Chrome warns you on each startup for non-store extensions. It's annoying. If they do one more steps, there're some NODEJS tools for them also. So that I think this extension really needs to focus on newbies.
