Any plans to update to Manifest V3? Google won't be supporting V2 for much longer.

Very useful extension but the new permission to read your browsing history required by the extension is a tad invasive for my liking
by Pikachupugs, 2022-08-23

The extension is useful, but a recent update added a very invasive permission requirement (history access) for the sake of a feature that is already covered by the "Open in Holodex" bookmarklet offered by the site.
