en Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact. If you have any needs, please contact us via the following contacts Whatsapp: +1 (248) 896‑8035 Telegram: t.me/harryysandersonn

en EDIT: The "react", "Reply", and "more" buttons seem to have more contrast now! I have zero complaints. FIVE STARS! Wonderful extension! I would like to mention that recently the "react", "reply", and "more" options are difficult to see lately. I assume FB changed something, but if that could be resolved I'd be a very happy camper.

en Such an improvement, 5/5 stars! Only feedback is that the chat icon is too dark to see in this mode, but you can still clearly see the word "chat" so it's not too bad

en It's amazing and works great on Messenger.com per 19/05/2024 - should've just been included in Messenger in the first place.
