Isn't it crazy how no-one has written a review for this yet? I'll gladly put in my two cents. I often find myself needing to format math equations when I'm trying to explain some homework to my peeps, and LaTeX was the first thing to pop into my mind as a solution. Sadly, since Discord doesn't natively support it, I've been trying to find ways to easily sneak it in. I've heard that Discord bots are a good remedy for this, but that only seems to work for servers, not when it comes to direct messaging. That brings me to this neat little extension! After downloading and testing it out, I saw that the latency between it reading the message and displaying it correctly was hardly noticeable—and the formatting was better than I expected! The only downside I found was that it only displays it when you have the extension, ruling out mobile users being able to view it as well. I think this could be solved by converting the math to images, although that would take quite a bit of heft to work out.
