🐛 Fix: When the stream tab was auto-opened right after a live notification, the broadcast sometimes appeared not yet started. Added a small 3-second buffer after the WebSocket event to ensure playback is ready before the tab opens.

KickAlert v2.3.3 — a major update since v2.0.0.

⚡ INSTANT REAL-TIME ALERTS
Switched from polling to a live WebSocket connection. Notifications now fire the moment a stream starts — faster and far more reliable, even during peak hours.

🤖 CHAT FILTERS
New optional Chat tab with 9 configurable filters: hide bots, spam, copy-pastas and emoji floods; block words/users; highlight your keywords and favorite users; get alerts on @mentions and broadcaster messages. Choose "hide" or "blur" per filter.

📊 MULTI-STREAM & VIEWER TRENDS
Watch up to 4 channels side-by-side in one tab. Live viewer-count charts with automatic spike/drop detection, plus a detailed trend modal (peak, low, averages, and a dual "Overall / Now" momentum badge).

🔔 SMARTER NOTIFICATIONS
Per-channel sounds (main/secondary/silent), custom uploaded sounds, Do-Not-Disturb hours, and viewer anomaly alerts.

🚀 AUTO-LAUNCH
Auto-open channels when they go live, with a smart duplicate-tab guard and optional auto-unmute.

✨ UI IMPROVEMENTS
Favorite stars on both tabs, redesigned channel cards with scrolling titles, aligned sparklines, and a richer viewer-trend modal.

v1.9.9 — Firefox notification fix

• Fixed: notifications were not delivered on Firefox — "silent" property is unsupported by Firefox's notifications API and caused the entire notification to fail
• Fixed: channels that triggered the error were re-detected as new streams on every check cycle

v1.9.8 — Notification improvements + Firefox compatibility fixes

• Fixed: channels with null startedAt were not triggering notifications — extension now queries Kick API for stream start time and notifies if started within 10 minutes
• Fixed: new streams were incorrectly skipped as "pre-existing" in UTC+3 and similar timezones (missing Z suffix in Kick API created_at field)
• Fixed: newly followed channels that had been live for 10+ minutes triggered false notifications
• Fixed: anomaly badges were visible in popup even when anomaly detection was disabled
• Fixed: notification buttons (Open/Mute) caused errors on Firefox due to unsupported parameters
• Added: informational note in Options when using Extension sound mode on Firefox (system sound plays alongside extension sound)
