Be careful which JS libraries you use when building extensions for Chrome - ban for Lodash

The blog post on "Road to Ramen" discusses the controversial topic of Google's removal of a Chrome extension created by the author. Initially intrigued by Google's decision, the author shares the story behind the rejection of his extension, which was due to the alleged use of the Lodash library. This application was intended to simplify tasks for browser users. In the article, the author expresses his surprise and frustration because he not only used a well-known library but also did so in a manner that was fully compliant with Google's guidelines. This example highlights how technology can sometimes lead to misunderstandings regarding the justification for content removal. Ultimately, the author calls on the programming community for greater support in similar cases and emphasizes the value of sharing knowledge and resources in accelerating innovation.
