Wondering if there is an update to manifest v3?
by frank, 2024-07-13

1. in medium.com articles, subtitles (h1 headers) do not appear in reader mode and only subtitles( with h2 headers) appear. 2. when i [activate readermode]-> [deactive]->[activate again], 2 scrollbars appear and 3,4,5,6,...etc scrollbars increase as I do this repeatedly.. please fix above. other than that i'm very content with this pro version...
