Λ H S Ξ N (ID: 00000019b738de93) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/27/2023 Functions exactly as described. Amazing how consistently this works on everything! One minor complaint: On sites where the download is initiated on the website and not with a redirect, downloads stop working so the extension has to be disabled. Not the fault of the extension though, it functions perfectly :D. Wish I'd found this 4 years ago.

Hope Zimmerman (ID: 0000002b0aecad88) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/05/2023 Really needs to be changed so it works for .mov files.

Fadexz Extra (ID: 000000ec204914e1) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 06/18/2023 Works but doesn't work for .mov files which is a little disappointing, if that is fixed and doesn't happen for any other common file types then I'd give it 5 stars

Adam Balint (ID: 0000007de1b9b326) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/15/2023 So simple yet really a relief. I wish I found it earlier.

James Donley (ID: 00000033c4851eb2) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/30/2023 Absolutely incredible, I wish this was a standard option in browsers. Sick of Discord trying to force me to either download files or embed them in-frame (I hate embeds in a text client), this lets me click an mp4 link someone posted and just watch it in a separate tab without downloading it.
