Incredibly useful and time saving.
by Tibo Geenen, 2022-01-20

This probably is out of the developers control...but I keep getting an issue where the Google API to Google Scholar thinks I'm a robot. This hangs the extension when I'm trying to use it, and it won't start working again until I manually go the Google Scholar page, try to look something up, then get asked if I'm a robot with a captcha. Once I clear the captcha, the extension works again. Any way to resolve this from the application side?
