en Works for google docs (with long load time) but nothing else. Things like google slides and google sheets, you can see the button but it just keeps on loading and unclickable. I mean an't they just as important? Why can't we use it?

en It stopped showing me the graph/stats part-- it tells me to re-render it, which I do, but it still doesn't show that part anymore. Ugh.

en I wanted to use this to help detect AI. I have a piece of work that is more than 90% AI generated using GPTZero, ZeroGPT and Grammarly AI check. However, when I use Draftback, it shows the student typing out each character. Now, they could be copying word for word from their phone or another window, but how can I prove that. It's odd to me a student can write an entire paper in 24 minutes, but I can't prove they copy and pasted. SO, it's a bit frustrating when truly trying to detect AI, and students are catching on to what programs teachers use and how they work ... any guidance? Or, perhaps I am reading the Draftback stats wrong?

en This is an amazing tool. It inspired us to develop a similar extension, "Process Feedback," designed primarily for students and teachers. That one allows sharing the writing process to others and downloading the writing process as a PDF to submit to a teacher.

en Loved it but now it won't show me the video or anything. It says it renders it but then has nothing to show. Any solutions to this??

en Question - what does it mean when sentences being written are both red/struck through AND green at the same time? Is this an indication of cut and past from another document?

en Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact. If you have any needs, please contact us via the following contacts Whatsapp: +1 (248) 896‑8035 Telegram: t.me/harryysandersonn
