Has anyone used the Viltrox 2.0 teleconverter with a Tamron 28-75 zoom?

Advice Needed

I've got a Sony a7 iii with a Tamrom 28-75mm f2.8 lens. Although good, I'd like to be able to get more magnification but I understand that superzoom lenses aren't as good optically and are more about convenience. I also don't want to spend a lot of money on another zoom lens (70-200mm lenses aren't cheap) which I won't use very often and will just take up space, so was interested to learn about the Viltrox 2.0 teleconverter-especially as it's about half the price of the Sony offering.

I know it sticks out into the lens a bit, so first question: is it definitely compatible with what I've got now?

Second: what are people's experiences using this combination? Would you recommend it?
