Night Kobun (ID: 00000031a506f792) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/23/2023 Getting this extension to change account association was such a pain to troubleshoot. I was hoping the logout button in the options would let me choose a new account, but it seems the only way to make it forget your account if to restart your browser. That solved one problem, but it presents another: Do I really have to login with the extension every time I open up my browser because even it remembers my logins for picarto. What is the point of the login button in the options exactly, because it just seems like another unnecessary toggle for the extension without a way to switch accounts. Updates are also incredibly slow. Even with setting the update interval to 10 seconds I didn't get a notification until 13 minutes after they started streaming. Why would I use this over gmail notifications? Not even the toolbar icon updates after logging in until a good amount of time.
