en "This feature is incredibly useful. I previously encountered it on my Android device, where highlighted words are automatically searched. I then sought the same functionality on my PC. Upon discovering it on the Chrome Web Store, I immediately added the extension, brimming with excitement. Diving into exploration, I was astonished by its features. It included functionalities I had been contemplating and actively searching for, or even considering developing myself – such as automatic searching of highlighted words and phrases. Most impressively, it also records the history of searched terms, however, the audio for pronunciation is not working." Thank you google.

en Why does Google always take down small wonders that are beloved by tens of thousands of people? What do they get out of making their platform less useful?

en SO CONVENIENT! Please don't take it down! As a student, I use this extension multiple times daily. Love the synonyms and time it saves instead of looking everything up individually. Definitely recommend!!!
