Crystal Identity (ID: 0000000ca14839bb) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/04/2023 I really wanted to like this app, but I JUST CAN'T STAND IT!!! It adds double furigana on some websites that already have furigana (such as Jisho). It removes images from some websites (look up both the US and Canada websites for Covergirl - they will not work). It doesn't have an on/off toggle button. I was tolerating the double furigana for a while, but now that it's stopped some websites from loading properly, I simply can't deal with this. Will be looking for a different app. REMOVED.

Tim König (ID: 000000627769d2f3) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/16/2023 Works perfect for what I need it, although there is an issue: If a website has an element with the "hidden" class, it will be hidden, due to the injected css code. I've only noticed this on my personal website and it's an easy fix on my end, however it's still something that could potentially be confusing.
