Canny extension for End-users

About

Power-user features for Canny feedback sites: show author and date on posts, mark posts of interest, filter what you see.

**What this extension does**

Canny extension for End-users adds power-user features to feedback sites that run on [Canny](https://canny.io/), a feedback collection service. It improves the post-listing experience by surfacing information that Canny does not show by default, by marking posts that match criteria you choose, and by letting you hide posts that fall outside a filter.

**Where it works**

The extension activates on:

- Any `*.canny.io` site (e.g. `feedback.canny.io`)
- `feedback.vrchat.com` (a known alias for VRChat's Canny instance)

You can try it on the Canny project's own feedback board: https://feedback.canny.io/

**Features**

- **Show author name and creation date of each post** in the board listing. Canny normally shows neither; with this extension you can scan author and recency at a glance.
- **Mark your own posts** with a distinct background color, so you can spot them in long lists.
- **Mark posts by specific authors** you configure by name — same idea, applied to other contributors.
- **Filter by author**: hide all posts except your own, or only show posts by authors you specify. Canny does not provide author-based filtering, so this fills that gap.
- **Hide posts from other boards**: when Canny's cross-board search returns posts from boards other than the one you are viewing, restrict the listing to the current board only. Independent of the author filter.
- **Each feature can be enabled or disabled independently** through the extension's options page or the toolbar popup. Your settings are stored on your device and persist across sessions.

**Privacy**

The extension stores your settings on your device only. It does not collect, transmit, or share any personal data, and it does not include analytics or telemetry. Full privacy policy: https://github.com/naqtn/vrchat-feedback-boards-helper/blob/main/browser-extension/PRIVACY.md
