lesser2greater's Issues

Possibility of re-adding support for Chrome?

This requires changing two words in background.js... seems like it should be really easy to add to your extension packing toolchain.

wiki.greaterwrong.com isn't actually a thing

wiki.greaterwrong.com is not part of the greaterwrong.com domain. I recommend you update your regex to make wiki.lesswrong.com usable.
