Hi Erik.

The extension has gone missing from the Chrome webstore. Why doesn't it appear anymore? I love it so much and would be disappointed if I loose it.

Thanks.

Yes, unfortunately Google has removed my extension because according to their policies my extension does too much and requires too many privileges. They don't seem to like extensions that work on every web site.

OK - is there a place to get the extension outside of the store?  It is amazingly useful!

for example is it on github? Could it be?

This site appears to archive extensions and provide them for install:  https://www.crx4chrome.com/crx/1444/ 
You can try following their instructions.

And now there’s just the Brave bug where Brave prohibits loading any extensions not signed by the chrome web store, even in developer mode.
