Readly: A Chrome extension for a streamlined Feedly experience

"Readly" is a unique Chrome extension that significantly improves the user's interface on Feedly. It provides several critical features such as a compact layout with less free space, a grey color title for read articles, consistent display of favicons, and shortcuts for opening articles in new tabs. Furthermore, the extension offers specific adjustments like smaller images for the freakenergy.ru RSS feed, ultimately striking a perfect balance between functionality and ease of use.

Doesn't appear to work? At least, not the favicon part. I thought it might be an issue with Feedly Pro, but tried it with a regular account and saw no visible differences. It got an update just a few days ago so hopefully this can be fixed.
