Updating

If TweetDeck's files were updated, you should receive updated files automatically without having to reinstall after refreshing tab (unless you set localStorage.OTDalwaysUseLocalFiles = '1').
If extension files were updated, you have to reinstall extension to get new update.

Better TweetDeck

I've made a fork of BetterTD that works with this extension, you can find it here. Install it the same way as this extension, except get archive from Releases page instead of "Code" button.
