The OwnCast Browser Extension improves the OwnCast experience with the following, exciting features:

• Follow instances: Whenever you visit an owncast instance, a \"Add to Extension\"-Button will appear. Click it, and it will automatically appear in the popup.
• Manage followed instances: you can use the pop-up to manage instances. See who's online, their uptime and their viewers!
• Get notified: Whenever a user goes online, you know it! A browser notification will appear.
• Auto-name-changer: Tired of changing your user-name for each instance by hand? fear no more! Set your username in the extension settings once, and you are good to go!

This extension is developed open-source under the MIT-License.
