Doesn't work.
by Mark Adams, 2023-02-22

Was about to sit down and code one after being annoyed one too many times changing /files to /zip in URL:. Thingiverse has numerous trackers / ad prodivders and no way I am allowing it just to get an stl. Luckily I decided to check first and found this extenstion, no need for me to code one as this works great ! Thank You !
