Absurd That I have to disable adblock to use this extention

Caio, 2024-03-31

"easy" bib toolbar? no it's not easy if you have type in all the info yourself -_-

Sha yan, 2023-05-24

This used to be a gem. Now? It has gotten worse, losing a majority of it's useful functions and giving unnecessary ads. It doesn't tell me if a site is credible or not, it doesn't automatically put the information into the citation slides, and for whatever reason it takes me to a new tab instead of staying as an extension. Should be renamed to "Inconvenient Bib"
