Works great, but I get a javascript error on every page: "TypeError: fn is not a function" This comes from line 17 of main.js, inside of function ready(fn)

хорошенькое расширение, все устраивает

I remember like it was yesterday. I was backpacking through Europe in 2017 with my friend Denny and my sister Maria. It was an early October afternoon in Austria... The air was just beginning to show the scents of fall and the leaves were still ripe, but yet to turn. I remember Maria was talking about brownies. I mean, who doesn't like brownies? Brownies are pretty much fudge. Who doesn't like fudge? So naturally, I pulled out my laptop in the middle of a cobblestone square and tried to find a brownie recipe. Mistake number one: the internet is a cruel place. Every single recipe blog decided that instead of giving me a recipe, it would first tell me about the blogger’s existential crisis, the 37 steps to selecting the perfect cocoa, their childhood memories of a dog named Muffin, and—just for kicks—their astrological sign’s influence on brownie baking. And then it happened. The browser extension appeared like a culinary angel sent to rescue me from narrative tyranny: Recipe Filter. I clicked it once. Just once. And suddenly: no fluff, no backstory about Muffin, no 700-word meditation on why flour is basically a spiritual experience. Just brownies. The recipe. The ingredients. The instructions. I wept in the square. Denny thought I was having a seizure. Maria called me dramatic, but she also ate three brownies straight from the pan, so she clearly understood my pain. If you’ve ever wanted to browse the internet without being trapped in a labyrinth of life lessons masquerading as baking advice, do yourself a favor: install Recipe Filter. It doesn’t just extract recipes; it extracts your soul from the tyranny of blogpost verbosity. Ten stars, would let it rescue me in a foreign country again.
