Aw, Snap! Error code: 5
When I try to play any Netflix video with the legacy extension turned on, both the webpage and the extension either immediately crash, or the video starts and plays for just a moment and then both the page and extension crash (the former with an "Aw, Snap!" error ["Error code: 5"], the latter with a toast: "Mikaku - Legacy has crashed" message). I have tried, one by one, all of the troubleshooting steps given via the "Learn more" link; none has worked.
When I try to access the legacy extension settings by clicking on the settings wheel icon, I get similar behaviour (the settings page opens and either immediately crashes or opens, loads for a brief moment, and then crashes; in both cases, the extension crashes along with the page crash) with the same error (code 5 again).
When I copy and paste the settings url directly into the address bar, I get this error:
This page has been blocked by Chrome
ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT
When I bring up the developer tools in all the aforementioned scenarios and try again (reloading the page, etc.), nothing appears in the Console or Network tabs to indicate anything is wrong; the former has no messages whatsoever, the latter has 200s all around.
Specs:
-- MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015)
-- macOS Monterey, Version 12.7.3
-- Chrome Version 121.0.6167.184 (Official Build) (x86_64) [up to date]

It might be a memory issue, does the same issue happen on another computer?

I haven't tried it on another computer (and it would take some time for me to set that up to check), so I don't know.
Notably, however, it sounds like I'm not the only one with this issue (see, for example, https://discord.com/channels/752293144917180496/1206904216145240064/1206907142041378857 and https://discord.com/channels/752293144917180496/1201453396515885127/1201453396515885127). Maybe these other folks have computers with better memory than mine.
