Doesn't work at all, at least not anymore (or at least for bots). I remember when this extension or a similar one worked perfectly. Might be a symptom of Manifest v2 or just Twitch changing their stuff so many times.

This extension simply scrapes the chat in real time looking for links, no API usage, since (AFAIK) that would require a BE service or to rewrite it as a Twitch Extension for content creators. I'm pretty sure the extension still works for standard twitch, but as soon as you install something like 7TV (which seems to rebuild the chat interface with its own class assignments) it can no longer find/read messages/links. I'm toying with the idea of rewriting the extension to use API, since a scraping model will always be brittle to both Twitch updates and other extensions overwriting UI (like 7TV). Really curious if it's possible to use API as a client only app/extension. Anyways, you probably don't care, but that's the rundown :)
