Has anyone tried it?
Ive been looking for something that can make following on mastodon easier and found this.
I just installed it and I really like the ability to go to any Mastodon site and click “Follow” and not having it re-direct to my personal site.
It doesn’t seem to work with GoToSocial at least at the moment, which is unfortunate. Ill have to see if I can “trick” the API by making it think its a mastodon server.

Follow button works very well.
Wow yikes… I like the idea of the addon but that attitude is just nuts and uncalled for IMO. NOTE: to clarify I mean the developers response
The option was also called “not open source / have trust issues” but i mean, no hate against the dev but i see no reason to trust it off the bat. Yeah, the response was kind of immature.
I get open source can be stressful. for example, the summit dev not making it open since they don’t want to deal with PRs/issues but at the very least make it source-available. From my POV this is a cool extension that popped out of nowhere, it’s risky to trust that.
I respect the up-frontness, though.
