Works great! Just what I need to make browsing Mastodon on the web usable.

The Mastodon instance I use does not support the url DOMAIN/@name@server – it needs DOMAIN/web/@name@server. This is supported by this extension, if you put DOMAIN/web in where it asks for DOMAIN. It will yell at you, but still work.
