I’m trying to make it so where anytime a profile uploads, I get a notification (Twitter’s Push Notification are VERY inconsistent so I can’t use them.)

For the record, I’m using the extension instead of the desktop app If that’s important.

using the desktop app instead of the extension is recommended so that the page can render its content properly.
