<h2>New in this version...</h2>

<ul>
<li><strong>Photopage "Show in Photostream" links</strong><br/>
<img src="/options/PhotostreamLink-326x47.gif" alt="" />
This is actually a feature I have been thinking about implementing ever since first version of Flickr Fixr
debuted back in 2015(!). But for some reason it took me 9 years to do it 🙄<br/>
On Photopages, this makes it always possible to open <em>Photostream where the photo is located</em>. No
matter if your current Photopage was opened from a group pool, an album, a search result, a faves-list,
Explore-page, gallery, etc. The new link is shown in upper left corner as an arrow next to the other arrow
that brings you back to the "context" you came from.<br/>
I find this feature very useful when I want to explore more from a photographer from same period, and I regret
I haven't implemented this 9 years ago. I think it brings a bit of much needed "gamification" value back
to Flickr. I have already had great fun finding interesting photos and photostreams while testing this 🙂

<li><strong>A single cross-browser MV3-extension</strong><br/>
After a period of maintaining separate versions of Flickr Fixr for Chromium (Chrome and Edge) and Firefox
browsers, recent updates to the browsers' Manifest V3 support (a to some extent standardized model for browser
extensions) has made it possible to (once again) make <em>only one</em> cross-browser extension that works in
all the browsers. Convenient, but good for you? Well, at least easier maintaining for me 🙂<br/>
To achieve this, I have had to raise the minimum browser-versions requirements, which is now Firefox 128 or
Chrome/Edge 121.
<li>Just a small update to adapt Flickr Fixr functionality to the new album pages. The "album comments" and
"map view" links inserted by Flickr Fixr, are now shown next to photo and view counts of the album. Maybe
not an extremely intuitive place to locate the "map view" link(?). But for now, it was a quick fix to bring
back both links after the changes Flickr has made to the album pages.<br />
PS. If somebody gets confused by the "album comments" link, it was an official feature of Flickr many many
years ago. The old page that the link points to, makes it possible to see comments made in those old days.
And actually I think it is still possible to make new comments, but be aware that most people cannot see them🙄
