This has been a great extension but it doesn't seem to be working anymore.

I haven't paid for Twitter Blue but it is swill showing for me like if I paid the checkmark. That's interesting...is there a way to give this feedback to the app creators...? For the past years before 2024, this extension still worked as normal and good. For Microsoft Edge...

Works great. Elmo broke it with the URL change. After contacting the dev, he updated it and it works perfect again.
