I want to thank you for making this extension. After seemingly randomly waking up to terrible pain in my hands, fingers, and wrists as well as bad fatigue in my arms and shoulders I lost the ability to do any of the things that I once enjoyed. It took months to figure out that I'm hyper mobile and that I'd be living with trying to manage the pain for the rest of my life. My hobbies that kept me afloat were out of reach and most of the time all I could do anymore was just sit there because my hands hurt too much to even hold my phone, type on the computer, or scroll on the track pad. Thanks to your extension I have access to some things I thought I wouldn't be able to do anymore, or at least for a very long time. I'm able to consume media such as manga and novels again, and each time I'm able to do so I feel extremely grateful for this extension and the person/people who made it. So thank you very much for your hard work.
