AcceleReader Extension: Power-up Your Pocket Experience

AcceleReader, Power-up your Pocket experience, is a Chrome extension developed for Pocket power users. The tool enables you to see the estimated reading time per article, the number of unread articles, and offers features like offline access to articles and filtering of articles based on length and age. Additionally, it also facilitates a 'surprise me' feature for random article selection and provides an ageing view of unread articles. Privacy-focused, it supports login via Pocket's username and password to avoid recurrent login prompts.

I can't login, while I had 2 different extension ON. Why? Which Adblock option should I fix?

The developer Adi is super great - I had an issue with the article count number being updated and within 12 hours of reporting the bug it was fixed and working good as new. I really like all the features and the extension in general, but knowing that any bugs will be addressed immediately is what makes me really impressed :)
