This used to work really well with Kindle Cloud Reader (and I didn't mind paying for it), but now it does not work with the site at all. There are no updates from the developer to suggest if or when this will be fixed - the website linked in the extension download page doesn't work, and the Github page has not been updated it seems in 2 years. I was still being billed so I unsubscribed on Paypal.
