The one important piece that Feedly did not offer was a Chrome extension that would let users subscribe to RSS feeds on any web page with a click. Since the extension was something that I needed for my own workflow, I wrote one writing a Chrome extension is easy and also published it to Google Chrome store. One morning I got an email from someone I tried Googling her name but it returned no results asking me if I would be interested in selling the Feedly Chrome extension. It was a 4-figure offer for something that had taken an hour to create and I agreed to the deal. I had no clue about the buyer and was also curious to know why would anyone pay this kind of money for such a simple Chrome extension. The extension was sold, they sent the money via PayPal and I transferred the ownership of the extension to a particular Google Account. It was a smooth transition. A month later, the new owners of the Feedly extension pushed an update to the Chrome store. Instead, they incorporated advertising into the extension. In simple English, if the extension is activated in Chrome, it will inject adware into all web pages. The user ratings of the Chrome extension are headed south. No surprises, the ratings of the extension have recently plummeted at the Chrome store but the business model of the buyer is simple — they buy popular add-ons, inject affiliate links and the bulk of users would never notice this since the Chrome browser automatically updates add-ons in the background. And there are no changelogs either. The extension does offer an option to opt-out of advertising you are opted-in by default or you can disable them on your own by blocking the superfish. It was probably a bad idea to sell the Chrome add-on and am sorry if you were an existing user.
