Better Homestuck Extension

Brings the following to the Homestuck experience:
- Instant load times for the next page
- Keyboard controls (arrow keys)
- Saves your reading progress by default
- A unified \"next\" button
- Handles special pages
- Auto-expanded chat logs
- Sensible scrolling when the next button is clicked and there is content below
- Highlighting for chat lines of Doc Scratch
- Minor page style tweaks
- Links to discussion of the current page (where applicable)

The last five features and some other minor things (eg. nice resizing) are not possible without the extension. The rest should might work without it by visiting http://better-homestuck.appspot.com/

A Firefox version of this is available here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/better-homestuck/

Corbin Campbell (ID: 0000007b66657dee) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/14/2019 I used to use this extension a lot and it was wonderful, but I cleared it when I finished homestuck. Right now I'm re-reading problem sleuth on the new site. Unfortunately, because of the site change, it no longer works. Are you considering fixing it in the near future? that would be great. thank you!
