Jason Huang (ID: 000000e785f6b0fc) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 06/25/2021 It asks me to log in but once I put my username, password, and 2fa in, and hit continue, the pop up disappears. When I click the extension again, it just asks me to login again. Clicking now gives me the option to "accept" or "decline". Clicking "accept" just closes it and still does not log me in or make the extension work. Please let me know what I should do.
