Important - To anyone using version 1.0 of my userscript: Please update to version 2.0!

I didn't really plan to share my userscript when I originally made it. However, now that it's beginning to be shared more widely and linked to elsewhere, I've decided that I ought to rewrite it properly in case more people start using it. The new code is much more simple and efficient than the horrible mess I wrote in version 1.0. ^^

  • Version 1.0 was just something I knocked together quickly for myself. It contained typos in the code and was a bit of a mess. Even though it has worked completely flawlessly for me so far, now that I've looked back at what I wrote and spotted the typos I'm kind of surprised it worked at all! :P

  • Version 2.0 is a much cleaner, tidier, professional looking userscript. I got rid of needing the jQuery library and switched to plain old basic JavaScript. And I've got rid of the unnecessary use of mutation observers, switching instead to a normal event listener. ^^
