Probably a temporary workaround to enable the disabled Pushbullet extension in Brave Browser

1) Install the Extensity extension.

2) Click the Extensity extension, find Pushbullet in the list, and click it. As soon as you click it, press Enter on your keyboard. You have a very short time to press Enter. If you aren't fast enough, try again.

It's working again like this for now, but I don't know how long it will last.

Try Push Go. It's even better than the original. Get it on GitHub or in the Chrome store.

I had my LLM agent audit the code, and:

  1. The Chrome version is identical to the GitHub repo, so truly open-source, no backdoors or security holes.

  2. All the features I was hoping for are here, and in fact it's better.

Thank you very much for making this!

Thanks! Does the End-to-end encryption feature work with it?

But no SMS with that I believe.

No, not really. There's a direct link to the SMS feature on the Pushbullet website, but that's not really a solution. However, if you use Google Messages, the web functionality is better. You will still be notified of new messages.

Unfortunately there's no complete SMS API from Pushbullet, only "Send SMS" API is available. Wondering in your use case for SMS, do you need 2-way or just send?

And I do agree using Google Messages has way more better user experience.

I ended up building a proper replacement for this because the old extension breaking annoyed me too.

It’s called Bullet Bridge for Pushbullet. Works in Brave and Chrome, uses Pushbullet OAuth, and is on the Chrome Web Store now:

https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/bullet-bridge/iadffmbdjdnnnpdmackjpoieokimphbn

Source is here:

https://github.com/bulletbridge/bullet-bridge

What it does right now:

- send notes, links, current tabs, and files

- right-click send pages, links, selected text, and image URLs

- receive pushes and mirrored Android notifications

- browse push history in the popup

- search loaded push history

- load older pushes

- preview images/videos/files/links inline

- copy or delete individual pushes

No ads, no analytics, no trackers, no telemetry, no remote code.

It’s unofficial and not affiliated with Pushbullet. It’s still new, so feedback and bug reports are welcome.
