v2.0.0
BREAKING CHANGES
This project is going to be archived in March 2023. v2.0.0 is the last release (pending any major bugs found in the next few weeks). It removes the error tracker and option to use the privacy proxy to obtain extensions updates. This is meant to keep it running for as long as possible after I shut everything down on my end. Update info for your installed extensions will now be fetched from origin servers directly (i.e. Google, with all privacy implications), should you use this feature (which is optional). Please read the notice on top of the README for more info.
v1.8.9
This version cleans up the extensions update info before the available updates state is computed from it. Apparently many of you use unlisted extensions with broken update urls. I hope this updates makes handling them more robust.
v1.8.8
v1.8.7
v1.8.6
When you're installing an (unsigned) extension via "Load unpacked extension" (in dev mode, as you have to with many extensions not published to the store), it is assigned a random id every time. Up to v1.8.5 update info was matched up with the installed extensions via id only, so extensions installed this way would always end up under "No update info available". This release also uses updateUrl as a fallback to make it work.
See also #38 for details.
v1.8.5
This release prepares for the upcoming user-agent string reduction in Chromium. See #36 for details. Huge thanks to @pointydev!

v1.8.4
v1.8.3 ("Unexpected token A")
This release increases the error message detail of failed JSON parsing attempts.
During the last few weeks the error tracker has caught a number of failed attempts to parse API responses. The changes enable me to see which of the APIs is causing the errors and why.
v1.8.2
Fix: Keep old versions & extensionsInfo state if API doesn't respond with actual data
(Woolyss API sporadically throws a 400/"Cached file not found", which should actually be a 500. But because it's declared as 400, its body got processed anyway in previous versions of the extension. This led versions to end up as an empty object, which in turn messed up the popup.)
v1.8.1 ("Sci-Hub Reloaded")
Added some more tweaks to make the extension more robust when dealing with network errors, broken update_url endpoints etc.
