Version 1.7.0 — Massive Multi-Language Update

🌍 50+ Languages Now Supported

Previously, the extension only recognized relative dates in English and Turkish. Now it supports 50+ languages, meaning it works no matter what language your YouTube is set to.

Newly supported languages include: Italian, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Arabic, Hindi, Bengali, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Thai, Dutch, Polish, Czech, Slovak, Romanian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Greek, Hungarian, Bulgarian, Serbian, Croatian, Slovenian, Lithuanian, Latvian, Estonian, Catalan, Hebrew, Persian, Filipino, Malay, Swahili, Amharic, and many more.

What's new:

Smart multi-language date detection engine that automatically recognizes relative dates ("3 days ago", "il y a 5 jours", "vor 3 Tagen", "2 mesi fa", "3日前", etc.) in all supported languages
Handles different sentence structures across languages (prefix, suffix, and mixed patterns)
34 new locale files added for Chrome Web Store localization
Performance optimized with dynamic regex building
Bug fix:

Fixed an issue where the extension appeared to not work for users with non-English YouTube interfaces. The extension was loading correctly but couldn't recognize date patterns in languages other than English/Turkish.
