Description

The Disable Likes Animation doesn't work. Like button still plays the animations.
Using Firefox, used extension for 2 months so far iirc, never seemed to work. Not seeing any errors in the console.

Would also be nice to have it disable the Subscribe/Like glow if the words are spoken in the video.

Research direction

Search the extension source for the “Disable Likes Animation” setting and the like-button animation handling, then reproduce the issue in Firefox. Done means the like animation is disabled when the setting is enabled; consider the reported Subscribe/Like glow separately because it is phrased as an additional request.
