I built a lightweight extension to simplify Gmail (free, local)

I got frustrated with Gmail's lack of customization, and built an extension for myself. It doesn't do much other than modify how Gmail is displayed in Chrome. Does it as minimally as possible (that I can engineer). Done locally, zero remote processing.

Currently built the following settings (want to add more soon):

Conversations: * Show newest message first * Show every message in a thread (sometimes they're collapsed into numbered bubbles) * Remove AI overviews (retches)

Layout/UI: * Minimize the search & top bar * Minimize the far left "rail" (Mail/Chat/Meet) * Hide a bunch of extraneous icons/buttons/items * Adjust width of Folders/Labels column (still in-process)

Mini-Automations: * Automatically open to inbox on page start/refresh * Automatically select first message if the reading pane is open (unless unread, or previous message already selected) * Add a recurring reminder (if wanted) to use Gmail's new Manage Subscriptions folder/feature

Bunch more features I'd like to add. Let me know if you think I should change anything. Or if you have any code/bug feedback... :)
