click at the extension. it showed nothing but a blank page like this  
(sorry, there was a screenshot but “new users can only put one embedded media item in a post.”)

and when i open the console at the blank one, i can see an error like this

i also reinstalled the extension and restart the computer, but it also doesn’t work.

my chrome version is “Version 119.0.6010.2 (Official Build) canary (64-bit)”.

can you help me? thanks!

Hello @aaxodl - thanks for reporting the issue. Chrome canary has removed support for WebSQL. As a result it is not possible to use Distill with canary yet. You will need to use stable or beta version for now.
