| 2023-06-14 |  | | en | I like it, but it has a serious problem with freezing up some known good websites, without the ability to allow them on the spot. I'd rather not go into the settings each time to whitelist them. EDIT 12/20/24: I see Chrome's doing some BS, and removing script and ad blockers... |

| 2024-04-05 |  | | en | Takes up 20+% of my CPU power and I have an I9-13900K. Locks up my PC whenever I try to add something to the whitelist. Fix this broken extension!! |
