Reviews of sci-hub x now!:
This is an awesome extension. One thing that could be added is a "document doesn't exist" error message. I've noticed that when an article isn't available on Sci-Hub (verified by website), the extension doesn't provide an error message. Instead, nothing happens and you are left to wonder what went wrong.
Amazing extension, works quickly and flawlessly on every link I've tried.
Feature Request: "Open in neighboring tab" would be a fantastic help!
