Used to work but now fails to sync anything to my timeline. UI no longer renders properly. Also they snuck in a default on option for it to send your browser data to edge.

Used this extension a lot for creating my billable hours through research and updates via web, which I do a lot for my work. Unfortunately this extension seems broken for now. When it worked, it did what it had to and worked like a charm!
