Is A Fine Start - minimal new tab page safe?

Clean risk

A Fine Start syncs authenticated bookmark changes to afinestart.me with the user's account token.

When you are signed in, A Fine Start sends your bookmark layout and account token to its vendor API for syncing. Its quick-add flow can also send the active page URL and title as part of a new bookmark.

Shared hosts - 1 hostname

Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.
