Is Konode | Private Bookmark & Tab Sync safe?
Konode syncs bookmarks, and optionally browsing history and open tabs, to a cloud backend the user configures and authenticates to.
Sync runs automatically whenever bookmarks change (and on a timer), pushing data to whichever backend the user has set up in options: a GitHub repository via a user-supplied personal access token, a WebDAV server with user-entered credentials, or a Google Drive account via OAuth. Content can optionally be encrypted client-side with AES-256-GCM before upload if the user sets a passphrase, and the extension refuses to sync to a public GitHub repo or over unencrypted WebDAV. If the user also grants the extension's optional history or tabs permissions, browsing history and open-tab lists are synced the same way.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Shared hosts - 2 hostnames
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.
