Doesn't work. Just launches a dead link

Ben Sisko, 2020-10-14

Excellent extension, the only option I think it lacks is being able to set which sci-hub proxy to search papers. Sometimes .tw is down, which limits the utility of this extension

Muhammad Zeeshan khan, 2020-10-08

Works great but needs option to switch Sci-hub proxy. (.tw doesn't work right now)
