User reviews
Had to drop stackcopy which was not compatible with Manifest v3, so testing alternatives.
This one does the job, but only on StackOverflow, as the name indicates. It would be nice to extend the list of sites covered, or alternatively let the user add their own URLs.
For instance, stackcopy had a longer list on Stack Exchange websites that are likely to let users post code snippets:
*://*.stackexchange.com/* (covers sub-domains like graphicdesign too)
*://askubuntu.com/*
*://mathoverflow.net/*
*://serverfault.com/*
*://stackapps.com/*
*://stackoverflow.com/*
*://superuser.com/*

Giving it 5 stars because the idea is great. But I the author doesn't have a real easy way to suggest changes. Please make a github repo. I suggest also making the clipboard icon something that can float. I already have the grepper icon in the same location as this icon used by the developer.
