Hide buttons are missing and the popup no longer shows the list of hidden jobs

Description

• The Hide n' Seek user interface, including the "hide" and "unhide" buttons, which normally appear on top of listings when searching for jobs on LinkedIn and Indeed, is missing.
• The popup, which normally shows a list of hidden jobs when searching for jobs on LinkedIn and Indeed, is instead showing the job search panel.

This issue may have been resolved with the release of Hide n' Seek 4.1.2 (#13 ).

I have not experienced this issue in over a week, but I will continue monitoring for a few more weeks before closing it.

I am closing this issue because I have not seen it appear in more than a month since Hide n' Seek was updated to 4.1.2 (#13).
