worked great until it stopped working and kept getting "next.amboss.com refused to connect." When I attempt to go directly to next.amboss.com, everything is in Dutch and my login doesn't work. If I have to manually use amboss website, what's the point of the extension if I have to manually use the website anyway

This is great. Desired features tho 1. Need to make anki cards from incorrects on question bank. For example, see the "Find Cards From UWorld Test" add on for anki. It would be nice if the Amboss Anki Add-On would pull cards based on incorrects, rather unfortunate that it is not able to do this at present. 2. Wish it were available for Microsoft Edge as well so I can use it at while on campus. + Edit, new requests ... 01/05/2025 3. When clicking an amboss link, it should open a new tab, instead of the new sidebar. The new sidebar feature is not desired and should at least have option to disable. The old way was better. Knocking off stars bc now I have to take extra steps to open the article in a proper new tab that is readable. The side bar is not usable.

Would easily be 5 star if it also showed the generic and trade name of drugs while hovering. At present it only shows the generic names, so it doesn't really help because on clerkships the attending always ask things like "what is the (mechanism/ADR/stepdown/etc) of [trade name] drug?" Even in "clinician" mode it shows only the generic name.
