Generally functions pretty well! However I cannot pause/unpause from the miniplayer and do have to alt tab. Unsure if this is a recent bug or has been there -- would be 5/5 if fixed!!!!

As of June 5th, 2024 (Chrome Version 125.0.6422.142 running on Windows 10) this extension seems to have completely broken and will not function for some reason.

Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact.
