User reviews
A very useful browser extension, when you can wrangle it into doing what you want. I spent 20 minutes going in and out of accounts trying to force it to select which account I wanted. Twitter for example lets you have multiple you are logged into at once, but for some reason it refused to acknowledge the one I wanted, even if I had logged out of it. This is, as you might imagine, extraordinarily frustrating~ My solution was to make a separate browser profile, install the extension there, log into each account 1 by 1, set the pronouns, erase all my history, cache, whatever, log into the next, and repeat until every account was done. Why I had to do this, I am not sure because I absolutely had multiple accounts setup to 1 browser before so something must've gone awry at some point. Maybe I'm just stupid, but whatever the problem was, the solution to it wasn't intuitive.
