Feedly Counter: Chrome Extension for Unread Feeds

"Feedly Counter" is a functional Chrome extension tailored to offer live updates on your unread Feedly articles. This tool provides seamless, one-click access to Feedly feeds. Notably, it replaces the original extension that unexpectedly lost this essential feature. The extension is about to become more efficient and secure, on acquiring the Feedly developer ID for optimization. It recently rectifies the 'grey icon' bug for a smoother functionality.

Ha funcionat bé, però fa temps que no mostra no llegits. It was great, but since last months it doesn't notify unreads.

Are you going update the icon to match the new format (16x16) for the latest version of chrome?

Does what is says on the tin. Two cons: if you already have a Feedly tab open (I like to have it pinned), clicking the icon will open a *new* tab instead of switching to the existing one. All my other "open a website" buttons get this right. Please implement this. 2. It seems to have trouble staying logged in; I often need to click it to get it to update. Not sure what the problem is.
