The disable 60 fps function works!!!

lem on9 (lemon), 2024-10-11

For some reason this extension stopped working a few days ago, videos would load up until 0:19 and then refuse to buffer any further giving a error "Something went wrong. Refresh or try again later." It works when I disable the extension, I'm kinda puzzled because I haven't done anything different/new. I run this along ublock so I don't use the built in ad manager. Kinda sad that I have to disable it now.
