In fact, the behavior here is perfect :
if you deselect a level lower than yours, it also deselects levels lower than the deselected level.
If you deselect a level higher than yours, it also deselects levels higher than the deselected level.
What I don't have is a way of knowing what my level is. I'll have to have a look, but it won't be for this week.
I think BGA fixed it just yesterday. When I posted my suggestion, the BGA behavior didn't have the automatic checking / unchecking. Now it works perfectly, so there is no need to do it in your extension anymore.

Would it be possible for the extension to disable the BGA "triangle" animation in the browser tab? Optionally, you could replace the BGA purple icon in the tab with a similar red icon to indicate a game is waiting.
The animation is just an ASCII character in the title element in the header that is being swapped once per second in JavaScript:
<title>◢ Board Game Arena</title>
<title>◣ Board Game Arena</title>
<title>◤ Board Game Arena</title>
<title>◥ Board Game Arena</title>
It is very distracting when I have multiple BGA tabs open and all of them have the constantly rotating triangle.

Interesting challenge, I'll have a look when I get the chance...
I'm not sure it's the feature everyone's looking forward to, but it's fun

It would be so much better to have a static indicator of a game waiting instead of the spinning triangle. I currently have 12 BGA tabs open and all of them are spinning which drives me nuts

I saw a post complaining about it in the BGA forums as well.

Another solution for the swirling triangle: allow it to be displayed only on pages with games in progress, not on other pages like the lobby, forums, etc. I don't need 12 tabs with a swirling icon to tell me that I have a solo game in the background

The extension already have an indicator, so it makes sense to remove the spinning titles everywhere. Maybe an option in a next version

Firstly, I appreciate the great work on this add-on. I truly value the effort you put into maintaining and improving it. Specially the dark mode.
I was wondering if there are any plans to make the add-on available for Firefox on Android. So that I can also use it on my tablet while traveling. Other dark mode add-ons are not as compatible with various games.
I understand that porting an add-on to mobile may come with challenges, but I’d love to hear your thoughts on whether this might be feasible in the future. Thanks

Thanks for your appreciation!
The extension is already compatible with Kiwi Browser if you have an Android device.
I'm using it right now

But I can try to test the compatibility with Firefox for mobile... in the meantime you have Kiwi

Awesome, thank you for considering this!
Also, I wanted to suggest on more feature that would be really spectacular. Could you add an option to hide the in-game chat
while it's inactive? Meaning, allow it to hide or completely slide down (like Windows taskbar) as long as there are no unread messages. If a new message comes in then the chat would show as normal.
Right now the chat is quite bad
even when collapsed: it covers game elements and gets stuck on displaying an old message from days ago that I already read. Both of these issues are perfectly shown here:
https://snipboard.io/4t8h2Y.jpg . I already opened and read that message 3 days ago but it stays visible and keeps covering the game.
