I went ahead and added a 100ms delay before the element removal which seems to bypass that page-crashing infinite loop some mouthbreather at Twitter added. Let's hope the little lord boy Musky Elon doesn't demand they patch it again

Seems they did patch it again, hasn't been working since last night.

Well, it's buffered forever again.

It is still not working any longer. 🔢
