Chrome Extension: Make Medium Readable Again

The 'Make Medium Readable Again' Chrome extension modifies the Medium platform to improve the user's reading experience. It eliminates elements that are considered disturbing e.g. sticky navigation bars and pop-up interruptions. It also offers options like pre-loading images and disabling highlight menu. It functions across all sites due to Medium publications being on custom domains. Open-source and frequently updated, this extension aims to truly make Medium 'readable' again.
