why not contribute directly to the project, given it's open source nature rather than a browser extension? I'm also thinking about contributing some stuff, I think a lot of the federated part right now is really confusing and obtuse to new users especially.

As a new user, yes I'm a little confused on the federated part. I'm sure others are too
