Could you expand a little? Are you referring to the workaholism some Americans have? Personally, I've always sought out companies that value a healthy work/life balance and am relieved to hear Europeans companies value it so highl

For your Reddit posts, did you target a subreddit that might have interest in the extension or did you use one meant specifically for extension development/promotion? If the latter, which one?
