I have an idea for a browser extension, but I'm not a good programmer, and looking for helpful solutions and tools.
tbh I have no idea how the world has so many browser extensions and yet of all the programmers I know and knew I never met a browser plugin dev
It's kinda weird 🤔🤔

😅
And there's no browser plugin dev job offers too.

So either there is a super premium on browser plug-in developers because they are so rare, or you don’t need to be a programmer to develop a browser extension. I’m not sure what to make of this.

With a little bit of javascript you should be able to make one: https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/building-chrome-extension/ (for Chrome).
This reminds me of an extension I made over 6 months ago when I was really bored 😅

FYI, address re-use is a bad practice, for security and for maintaining financial privacy.

I wanted to make something that when you hover over an address, it will show basic information about it, like current balance. Do you want to help?
