Lol, too much permissions for the function.
by Bohdan Kuba Bohdan Kuba, 2024-04-01

This extension could have very easily been the best vertical tabs option, if only the developer would continue to update it & solve bugs. Last update was in october of 2021. As a result it has some issues with overlapping on Youtube, and based on bug reports in the Github, some websites will flash rapidly (seizure warning) with this extension enabled.
