Andrew “saaadel” Spoda (ID: 000000f69f6f12a6) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/23/2023 This is only one extension in the web store that correctly replaces individual Unicode characters (not letters-numbers, but special punctuation and others). I mean it processes Unicode characters in the pattern correct way. ONLY ONE EXTENSION here!
