Description

Improves the Android Firefox experience with better advanced settings access and navigation.

Changes

  • Advanced Settings Tab: Moved advanced settings to a dedicated tab view on Android (accessible via gear icon), keeping the main popup clean and focused on basic settings
  • Platform-Aware Settings Button: Settings button behavior now adapts based on platform - opens advanced settings view on Android, options page on desktop
  • Improved GitHub Navigation: Switched to browser.tabs.create() API for more reliable link handling across all platforms, with automatic popup closure on Android for better user feedback

Why?

On Android Firefox, the extension options page cannot be opened due to platform limitations. Previously, advanced settings were displayed inline with basic settings, cluttering the popup interface. This change provides a cleaner UX while maintaining full functionality.

Closes #109, #110

Move advanced settings to dedicated view accessible via gear icon,
preventing clutter in the main popup on Android Firefox where the
options page cannot be opened.
…ng links

Use browser.tabs.create() API instead of window.open() for better
reliability across all platforms. On Android, automatically close
the popup after opening the link to provide clear feedback that
the action was successful.
