(EN) Still working for me, but not on every site. Most texts are copied successfully. Some texts are copied as "undefined" (and stating so in the message box). Some link texts are not copied (with no message box appearing at all). I had to specifically allow (new) permissions in addon settings as well as restart the browser for it to work. (DE) Funktioniert immer noch bei mir, nur nicht auf jeder Seite. Die meisten Texte kopiert es erfolgreich. Einige Texte werden als "undefined" kopiert (und benennen es auch so in der Message-Box). Einige Linktexte werden nicht kopiert (es erscheint dann auch gar keine Message-Box). Ich musste explizit (neue) Berechtigungen in den Addon-Einstellungen aktivieren sowie den Browser neu starten damit es funktioniert.
