Extremely useful Add-on and very well built tool ! Idea for future update: the option to not add the next release in the queue but to switch directly to it

I only downloaded this 10mins ago and I've already gone through so many listings that would've taken so much more time and effort to search for myself. This is a game changer for anyone who spends a reasonable amount of time exploring discogs. Amazing plugin, thanks for building! Legend 🙏
