this is one of the best extension it would be best if it was able to identify 18 + images and blur them

SHIVAM TRIPATHI, 2024-04-26

I suggest to make it possible to change the shortcut button (to customize it). And to make the backgrounds in the web included with the blur (I mean the css backgrounds). Also to take a look on the new YouTube thumbnails, they were changed to be something not like img, something like background, I'm not sure what you should do, but you can 100% solve this by updating the accessing on them when it's on youtube.com. Thanks for the cool extension.
