Is Tab Suspender – Free Up RAM & Boost Browser Speed safe?
Tab Suspender can send suspended tab URLs, titles, and timing details to Google Sheets when logging is enabled.
When the optional Google Sheets logging feature is configured, the extension records suspended tabs with their URL, page title, date, time, active time, and desktop index. It stores these log entries locally and posts them to the user's configured Google Sheets spreadsheet through the Google Sheets API.

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.
