Recent reviews
It only works some of the time, and in the least useful way possible, in a github PR. This functionality should not need an extension, especially not one that requires such permissions

Only works with small PRs
by Dmytro Savochkin Dmytro Savochkin, 2023-10-11

It's nice to see test coverage directly in GitHub, but the extension itself is not very reliable. I often see rendering errors appear at the bottom of PR pages, and files with inline comments are often pushed far over to a single column making them totally unreadable.
