I'm not sure if its just that I have over 3000 channels blocked or if the extension broke but now it'll show me a few streams but wont load anymore than a few streams under game categories.

after adding a channel, the save button closes the window, not necessary, could keep it open. Or instead have an "apply" button next to it, that saves but not closes the window. Can we right a channel and add it that way in the future?
