Added

blocking
tab which will allow users to block specific channels based on the channel's handle (e.g.: @ChannelName). Adding a channel to your blocklist will hide that channel's content on the Home, Subscriptions, Trending, and Search pages - Added locales for English, French, German, Spanish, and Russian
- Added a badge to settings button which will display the extensions toggle state (on = green, red = off)
- Added page icon and page description to the page header

- The ability to toggle options on/off and see the changes in real time, without needing to refresh the page
- Moved the power button (main extension toggle) to the settings menu
- Updated navigation bar icons
- Updated switch container styles
