User reviews

Only works if the webpage scrolls. Clicking the mouse stops it from working (this is not mentioned in the description). Could instead have a user set key to hide cursor until said key is pressed again, would have been much better.

Does not function on Edge for macOS (version April/2024). As if I never installed the extension in the first place.
