This once worked well. It now doesn't work at all. I used, in an effort to fix the issue, the link from my SproutSocial account to download fresh and reinstall. It doesn't make any difference. I am surprised, and disappointed, that a company which charges such monthly fees would allow its own browser extension to simply wither and die. This is not a good look for SproutSocial.
