- It is working fine in Chrome, but I'm a Brave Browser user and unable to sign in there, so I'm unable to see the similar repositories functionality. Showing Sign In on top and bottom even though the other tab says to close it and get back to previous one after login.

- Awesome extension, has significantly improved my GitHub experience, ability to find similar repositories is very helpful plus being able to read through a README of a similar repository without having to navigate away from the current tab is great!
