glad that this extension is finally on the web store it makes it so much easier to get than how it was originally before it was on the store i also wanna say that there's just one minor problem with the 1.5 update and it's that whenever you see the twitter accounts ran by companies the verify badge is white instead of yellow like it's suppose to be but other than that this extension is awesome :) Edit: ATTENION EVERYBODY ELON MUSK HAS RECENTLY MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR PEOPLE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE PEOPLE WHO SUBSCRIBED TO TWITTER BLUE AND THE PEOPLE WHO HAD GOTTEN THE CHECKMARK BY REQUESTING IT AKA THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE LEGACY CHECKMARKS PLEASE SHARE THIS EXTENSION AROUND WITH EVERYBODY YOU KNOW ON TWITTER RIGHT NOW OR WHATEVER TIME YOU FEEL LIKE
