New "feature" either inserts ads into google searches or breaks adblock functionality. Yet another extension ruined by adding something the user didn't download it to do.

Just updated and everything is running smoothly! The new update really made a difference.

Adware at this point. You can whitelist it to certain Reddit domains, and it still works, but they took it too far. Allow this extension to read and change all your data on websites you visit: On specific sites *://*.redd.it/* *://*.reddit.com/*
