User reviews
YouTube Music: The status only works when the music page (music.youtube.com/watch?v=xxx) is open. Navigating away from it (e.g. browsing playlists) causes the listening status to disappear. If the devs can find a workaround to retrieve data from the minimized player, it would greatly improve the experience. :)

Very simple and minimalistic extension for showing Discord Rich Presence! I mostly use it for YT Music, and it is only finicky in that the site needs to be in the "Now Playing" page where the Album Art is maximized for Discord to recognize the activity. Otherwise, very nice integration.

Excellent extension. Fixes my gripes with PreMiD being picky on which site will say "Watching ___". my only issue is my first experience with Hulu watching Power, there's no image there and it's a big ? box. Not sure if this is intentional but I get no image for the show
