User reviews

Please fix to work with MS Edge.

I am just starting to use Ground News. The website works great and I would like to use the browser extension, and it simply will not work. I am having the same issue as another review here, I am using MS Edge. The browser extension keeps saying that any article I look at isn't recognized and it keeps wanting me to re-sign in and simply directs to the browser page, which is signed in when attempting to log in.

I love Ground News, but the browser extension keeps saying that any article I look at isn't recognized and it keeps wanting me to re-sign in even if I signed in a second beforehand.
