What is Graze for Mastodon?

Additionally, it allows users to personalize with configurable settings and UI improvements. Its known limitations are that favorite, boost and bookmark icons don’t remain active after page reload and it is compatible with Mastodon web version 4.1.2 or later.

please add an option to disable the `appearGraze` CSS animations, they are pretty broken: https://chaos.social/@dngrs/112226225786406507

I'd like to use this, but it isn't currently compatible with our instance which runs the Hometown fork. My rating of 3 stars is only giving it the benefit of the doubt.
