I'm having issues with the latest update (1.6.0) being that it's not allowing me to save filters to any profile. After I've input filters and try to save them to a specific profile it simply doesn't respond regardless of how many times I hit save. I'd like some help with this cause it's honestly tiring having to import filters for every single stream.

Hey great extension. Is there a way to filter chatters with a checkmark to their name?

Gigi Ree, 2020-11-11

The new version at first wouldn't except my previous filters. Eventually it worked, but the extension refuses to save chats indiscriminately. Now it doesn't work full stop; I can't access the settings or my filters.
