Reviews of canvas+:
Only Extension that fully turned all the buttons black. Very cool look. Highly recommend.
Does what it promises to do. For a few months it would make my desktop computer's fans spin up for seemingly no reason but that's been resolved now.
Completely killed my battery life. I have the brand new Macbook Air M2 chip and It ran just fine until I downloaded this extension. My battery life went from about 11-12 hours to not even 3 hours where all I am doing is typing in a google doc. I know its this extension because I told my computer to kill the Crome tab that had the most energy impact, and every time it was Canvis. This was not an issue for anyone else in my class. For reference a normal tab's energy impact is between 0- 12 and the canvas tab with this extension is 400. I tried removing the tab and it was still drawing this amount of power. I have tried everything it has messed up my google account.
