User reviews

Why does this extension need to request the change-website-access permission? Specifically, the permission is described as "Change your settings that control websites' access to features such as cookies, JavaScript, plugins, geolocation, microphone, camera etc.". Why is this needed for a medium.com clapping extension? If it actually is necessary for the extension's functioning, the extension description should really explain what it's needed for. Github Issue: https://github.com/DoomPatrol/applause-extension/issues/3 Also, the extension seems broken at the moment (multi-clap button not showing up). See: https://github.com/DoomPatrol/applause-extension/issues/1

Helped make clapping on Medium posts a ton easier and was also really valuable to see how much clapping for posts I've done.
