en | Didn't work :/ Downloaded it, wasn't entirely sure how to set it up. I think I figured it out but then it didn't change anything at all. |

en | Excellent! Works as intended and the option to add in multiple spelling of the deadname, nicknames, or misspellings is great. Only complaint is that it changes my deadname when it isn't specific to me. Its kinda confusing when I see celebrities with my name only to realize they probably had my deadname (which I don't mind seeing as long as it's out of reference to myself). Seeing that the extension changed the name of whole pages on wikipedia or movies/books etc. was funny at first but now kinda frustrating. One of my deadname nicknames is a fairly common word and as much as I love my new name, seeing it appear randomly in sentences is annoying. I don't plan on disabling the extension bc/it has been very helpful for documents and school accounts but I wish this issue could be fixed. One possible way is having some sort of setting like shinigami eyes where you can choose what websites you would like your preferred name to appear on. Overall, great application and I def would recommend but there is an issue that should be fixed. |

en | There were some problems with it that others have likely mentioned, most notable for me was capitalization. My school used all caps for account names and it was weird trying to account for that. It would be more streamlined if you could put in Deadname and Name and it would change DEADNAME, deadname, or Deadname to NAME, name, or Name. Names with multiple capitals might complicate that, I'm not a programmer. Overall, it was a good tool to reduce dysphoria or other negative feelings from reading the wrong name and also good for trying out new ones. I had to reinstall it to write this review because since first installing it, my name has been legally changed and I don't often come across my dead name thus I no longer need it. To everyone who needs this extension: it gets better. |

en | Love it, but I can't keep it on all the time. Some pages, most notably email apps, seem to crash with this. Since Chrome doesn't have a blacklist option for extensions, only whitelist, could you add an option to the app to disable on specific sites? Similar to how you can pause adblocking on specific sites? |

Used to work well, now it locks up the pages. Is a good extension, however. | |
