Despise the World Today (Back 2 tha 90s) (ID: 0000005da12a3c30) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/06/2023 Hello. I would like to bring an issue that I am experiencing with the extension to your attention. When attempting to activate the extension by clicking the pinned extension icon, only a very thin vertical strip of the menu is shown. There is no way to ascertain the information presumably provided on the menu, as the vertical strip that does appear is too thin to convey any legible content. I tried un-installing then re-installing the extension, as well as checking for additional extension options, enabling permissions, etc., but nothing has worked. This error makes the extension utterly useless. Of course, whether you choose to remedy this issue or delete the extension from the Chrome Web Store altogether is up to you. I just wanted to make you aware of the presenting problem. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I hope you have a wonderful evening.
