Is BetterVLR safe?

Low risk

BetterVLR sends Twitter/X status IDs from VLR forum posts to a Fly.io service for tweet embeds.

On vlr.gg pages, BetterVLR scans forum posts for Twitter/X status links and posts each status ID to muddy-brook-3061.fly.dev unless it already has a session cache entry. The response is used to render an embedded tweet in the page.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.

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.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed BetterVLR contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
