v4.0 - Local Data Storage and API Access 🎉

What's this update about?

ℹ💸 Since Elon planned to charge developers for using of the Twitter API, we found a way to ensure the continued existence of LikersBlocker without paying Elon by blocking the users locally in your browser instead of an external web service. The downsite: You can now only block 500 users at once. If you want to block more, you have to logout from Twitter and login again.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: If you use Firefox, please right-click the extension icon, click "manage extension", go to "Permissions" and enable all permissions to make sure the extension works.

We hope you enjoy the new Version! 🦄
