Pretty, but radomly hijacks the letter U when I'm typing, so it is now popping up the view source modal nearly every time I type a message. This is just too annoying, so sadly I had to uninstall it. This for sure happened consistently in Gmail as well as Twitch chat, but really it wasn't website specific and happens all over the web. I use Linux and MacOS and the same behavior happened on both. Weirdly, when this happens, the only way to get my U key back to where I can actually type the letter U without triggering the popup is to hit the Ctrl key (Linux) or Cmd key (Mac) by itself. This then lets me type the letter U for awhile before it happens again. Hope this helps.
