Does not work. I am bombarded with "Background request rules stopped! The server response was not 200 OK!" What does that even mean? I could find no help other than a six-year-old GitHub post that doesn't help. I wish it did work. It seems nice.

Works great. I use it to keep me logged into Blackboard and my college website. Some sites can take a bit of adjusting because each site has different ways of deciding when to log out a user. That's what great about this extenstion. It has lots of settings that can be adjusted to match how each website works.
