It worked perfectly until 1 month ago when it started to fail and many notifications about the start of the stream are not shown... I already tried to reinstall it but nothing... it's still the same.

I've been using this ever since the VinesauceAlert extension got abandoned 2 years ago, I don't even go to the following/live page now.
