User reviews

Pro: Display the contents of the humans.txt file on clicking the extension button in the address bar. Feature Request: change the icon color, depending on the currently visited site having a humans.txt file or not (would be really handy) Bug (Chrome Version 90.0.4430.93 (Offizieller Build) (x86_64)): Visiting any site with HTTP-Authentication will close the Login dialogue on page load (which makes it impossible to enter whatever credentials for the site). I had to uninstall the extension due to this behaviour.
