Does the Job Quick & Easy, No regrets
by Taj MyBalls, 2025-03-08

Идеально то, что я искал, мне всегда не хватало такого удобного инструмента чтобы выделить текст и посмотреть значение слова/строки кода и т.д. Хотелось бы иметь возможность использовать такой инструмент не только в браузере, но и в других приложениях на компе, например в мессенджере Telegram. Так же порекомендовал бы возможность настроить показ анимации при использовании Popup Display Option, я бы отключил анимацию чтобы сразу увидеть ответ ИИ, это сэкономило бы мне время.

When I installed it, I couldn't access the "Getting Starting Page". Also, the server is slow/down for getting responses.
