新しいタブがバックグラウンドで実行されない。アクティブになる。削除して追加したら一時的に直った。しかしまた機能しなくなった。私はBraveブラウザで使用しています。

It's great and still working fine, but I'm sorry to see this message "This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions." in this page. I hope google respect users with special needs like this addon.
