Enjoy your favorite GIFs in HD.

- Fixed other reported issues
(If you encounter any bugs, specific GIFs not switching to HD, etc, please open an issue on the Support tab. Also might need to tweak some values based on user feedback.)

1.2.3:
Fixed race condition (stopping at start) on some RedGIFs GIFs and fixed share button sometimes popping up. Please feel free to report specific GIFs you encounter issues with at the Support tab.

Fixed rare occasions of RedGIFs GIFs not switching to HD.

Great idea but sadly it seems to make playback a bit buggy and recently if you switch tabs after pausing the video it always keeps resuming which is really annoying. Uninstalled for now. Thanks though.

Automatically turns on audio for ALL gifs so expect to be blasted with audio if you use this. it worked before but now it's not.

Why this extension even needs to be a thing is just baffling. But I guess that's what happens when your platform isn't making money and you decide to charge people for automatically setting gifs to "HD".. when "HD" should be the default in this day and age. Just sad, really.
