    Never installed honey because I knew it was too good to be true somehow.

    There’s no way you make that much money to pay all these influencers on a fucking free addon without a catch

      Honey bad. Converts affiliate links to Honey commission, even if no coupons found. Oh, and it doesn’t actually look for all coupons and will limit what is shown on partner sites. Video was a good watch.
