v1.5.4

What's Changed

• feat: System prompts now support a key to retrieve the current date and time.
• feat: Added an option for the user chat bubble.
• feat: Added a copy button to user messages.
• chore: Updated French translations by @hgourvest in #477
• chore: Updated Chinese translations by @Nriver in #478
• refactor: Added error handling and cleaned up code by @garyhuangdev in #482
• fix: Fixed the Model Nickname bug.

Note for Firefox Users

As I mentioned in the 1.5.3 release, the Firefox extension now requires a human review, which will delay the release or the availability of the latest updates. I will upload the latest version to the add-on store every week and hope they approve it quickly

Note for Chrome Users

Somehow, version 1.5.3 has not yet been reviewed by the Chrome Web Store. So, in this case, I am including the CRX file of the latest release, which you can simply drag and drop into chrome://extensions/. This will automatically update Page Assist to the latest version without removing any data.

Note for Firefox Users

I submitted version 1.5.2 last week. The current version, 1.5.3, has also been submitted, but it has not yet been approved by the Firefox Add-ons store. Extensions with over 10,000 users now require a human review. Sorry for the delay—it's out of my control. :(
