It's not entirely clear to me that people are having install success with this non-store extension.

It would be nice if the GitHub README stated exactly what this extension does, as that is not clear merely from GitHub.
I opened an issue to add this > github.com/forem/forem-browser-ext...
I just installed it but it's not working for me... It's loaded but appears disabled.
Same thing happens for me. Even tried restarting chrome
Using chrome on mac.
Yeah, me too. I use mac
what does the extension do?
I opened an issue to add this > github.com/forem/forem-browser-ext...
It adds a side bar to all forems with links to other forems.
So if you're a member of Dev and a member here you can add both to the side bar for easy swapping.
I did install this extension in Brave (Chromium) but nothing seems to happen. There is no sidebar.
I opened url forem.com/valid_forems.json in the browser then the extension started working
I think the issue might be in loading this json forem.com/valid_forems.json
Have you tried in Chrome and Brave? I wonder if Brave has different security settings which prevent that resource?
I am using brave browser. I'll check chrome (but I think they should be same since most chrome extensions work in brave by default).
I tried chrome now and it works in chrome. But for brave I had to visit the above URL first.
Hello, i've got installed this extension but no changements. No sidebar, no options :c
Yeah, I'm concerned that the "boot up" logic is a little inconsistent, or something is going on when you first install it, perhaps a race condition....
Feel free to try and debug and help us figure out why 🙃
Yeah of course
I have installed extension in chrome and got no change.
After submitting the above comment It redirected me to forem.dev/comments and json data is displaying on it.
I am going to give this a whirl tomorrow 🤓
Great
Only in Firefox when trying to get it to work, but no success yet.
Where can I get the extension?
github.com/forem/forem-browser-ext...
I'll edit it into the post body, my bad 😄
Cheers! I'll try it out :)
Gave it a go in both Edge and Chromium but to no avail. :/ Didn't get any errors printed either 🤔
Visiting the extension source code page, it is unclear to me "what does it do?". That would be a good improvement to add to the README.md.

Firefox user here o/
Does it work cross-browser?
I installed it a few days ago, it's cool
I'm using it on the Chromium version of Microsoft Edge, at it works great!
I installed it... but I'm primarily a Firefox user, so I haven't been making much use of the browser at the moment :P
