I really like it. It has slick features that make it customizable. It's easy to set up, straightforward, and works really well, and on a lot of various websites, including "X" and YT comment section. I kept noticing how many people were suddenly using "fog" and "fogging" and at first didn't realize those were my replacements. I turned off the feature that put brackets around replaced words, and now I don't even think about was there, or notice it had been edited. I haven't noticed any browser lag since installing.
