Is Reddit post notifier safe?
Reddit post notifier asks Reddit for history access when users connect an account.
When a user adds a Reddit account, the extension opens Reddit's OAuth consent page with identity, read, private message, and history scopes. The stored evidence says the notifier uses account, message, and public Reddit API calls, and does not show code reading saved, hidden, or voting history after consent.

What this publisher told the store about itself, and the other listings that told it the same thing.
Same store account
1 other listing published from this account, 1k+ users between them, none of them carrying a finding.
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 Reddit post notifier 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.
