to think that an extension ever makes things safer is misguided
Browser extensions to protect your private key from Nostr:
- Alby (Chrome & Firefox)
- nos2x (Chrome extension)
- Nostore (iOS & macOS)
My favorite clients:
- Web: Primal
- Desktop: Gossip
- iOS: Damus & Primal app
- Android: Amethyst

In this case if they are more secure, these extensions were created by the failure of certain web clients such as anigma which leaked the private key of users. If the extension is well programmed as is the case of those that I have exposed, they use the keychain of the operating system in the case of iOS and macOS or the credential manager of the browser or the corresponding operating system.
