My favorite extension of all time it's awesome <3

Ahmed Hashem, 2025-02-24

Невероятное расширение, но есть одно но, когда копируешь текст через кнопку расширения, тот копируется в буфер расширения/браузера, что порой крайне не удобно. Было бы изумительно если бы текст копировался в буфер Windows (Ctrl + V) 😊
