Please add settings to change "hrs" to "minutes". It can be a bit hard to understand the estimated reading time in such format for people that do not understand it and constantly checking the conversion is a waste of time that this extension is supposed to save.

I would very much like for this extension to work, but it does literally nothing. No time is displayed and clicking on the extension icon only allows me to change the settings.

Absolutely a must for me. As a community manager I have to search and read many posts and articles (to make content curation as a part of my job), and this extension helps me a lot to decide wether to read those texts in the moment or save the link for later (in apps like Pocket). A productivity power up combo!! I experienced some issues in the past involving incompatibilities with YouTube, but after reporting to the developer he fixed those problems and wrote back to me. I'm so grateful for this follow-up since I love this extension!

Helpful and works, but very buggy. Creates an impassable overlay on some sites like Youtube, and it doesn't retain changed settings between sessions.
