Since last update theres an AI sidebar now. Fine, whatever. But also have broken the AI functionality that was already there and which was better?
Before , I could highlight text , right-click and then select a preset prompt straight from that context menu about the highlighted text. Which would open a sidebar anyway.
The sidebar is just objectively worse than this previous func. To achieve the same result i would have to highlight, copy, open sidebar, paste, write a prompt. Why have you done this?
That context menu was pretty convenient. I stopped developing my own extension which did the same thing when i saw you guys had already polished the functionality. Replacing with the sidebar, it's no more convenient than just having an llm in a tab, so there's no reason to use it.
If you're going to implement AI against the loud protests of your core userbase you really , really need to think it through better than what you're doing. What is the use-case. How to do it well. It was actually a good innovation you had there, and now you've taken a step away again.
