Hello, I have been using this for years but recently there are issues relating to google gmail. I can't open gmail and I can't login with gmail. I have some other extensions but disabling this one makes gmail works again. Please fix soon.

Good addon. breaks some websites like Indeed.com however making it somewhat inconvenient So if you need to look for work, you have to disable this extension now for some reason. Only as of recently has this happened (last few days at time of writing)

The DuckDuckGo extension forces sites you visit to use an encrypted (HTTPS) connection where available, protecting your personal data from third-parties trying to snoop on your internet activity, such as your ISP.
