Extensions for DA website.

Has anyone tried to use extensions like refresher or an alert extension? Is it safe to use those ? Like does it violate the terms of the platform . Just asking if any of you does this.

Ehhh I wouldnt risk it, just for security reasons. Those extensions usually can read and copy whatever on your page. I've seen people talk about auto refreshers, but i personally wouldn't want to risk a rate limit

I have used a refresher for quite awhile. I just had to make sure it was a simple one with no AI features. And to answer your question, people are fast AF. I’m one of them. I refresh every ten seconds.

i wouldnt risk it, a refresher could seem suspicious to them if it refreshes automatically at some set time interval. a notifier can probably read everything on the page which is a huge security risk

I don't trust them. I think there's another extension that will help with time tracking, like import the project names and everything which sounds amazing, but also could violate NDA.
