- (2025-07-14) Miloš Tanasijević: It used to work great, but now fails on every file with "couldn't fetch". I would have gladly paid for the feature since it used to be amazing, but the update which included registration broke the literal core functionality of the extension, which is unacceptable. And yes I did "Allow access to file Urls" - As I said it did work great previously. I appreciate everyone's effort but monetization must not interfere with the basic functionality. Guess Vibe coding without testing tends to do that. Greed is good.

- (2025-05-09) Dean A: Wonderful. I now open all my md docs with chrome by default because the ext kicks in. Lightweight, readable. Not like all that other 100mb clunky open source junk i tried before.
- (2025-03-27) Harald Hanöfner: From my opinion the best markdown reader for Chrome and Chromium derivatives. Works great, with a lot of features and configuration options. Also the maintainer reacts very responsive and responsible on bug reports or useful feature requests.

- (2025-02-19) Lorand Tompa: This is excellent work! I love the design. Could you share the CSS file so that the HTML output (e.g., from Pandoc) maintains the same style? Thanks!
- (2025-01-29) Mohamed Be: good and easy to use

- (2023-03-29) 王晓锋: 能否在生成html时添加一个<meta content=no-referrer name=referrer>，要不然有些网站如果加了防盗链的话，会根据referrer进行拦截
- (2023-03-11) Thomas Delplace: I'm a developper and I'm working on a really complex JS library right now so I had to write a documentation, even for myself to be able to find any information about anything on my code really quickly and easily. I prefered to do it oin markdown since it's adapted to github's platform. I tried several and no other chrome extension for markdown readding is nearly as good as this. This is just perfect ! Thank you people for bringing that to life !
