Cassette isn't an extender, to my eye. 11-34 at best I reckon.
Sorry. My bad. Recommended 14t max difference in front rings, isn't there? Could be an issue for OP with a middy if so.Sorry, I wasn't clear - I mean the front rings. 24 42 or something . That deraileur can handle any normal 2x setup, but not if he's running something weird like a 24 granny and a 42 big ring

Au contraire, looks like only 11-34t to me.

I intentionally deleted knowledge of front derailleurs many years ago. They are dead to me.

By the way OP, that isn't "easy gear front and rear". Its actually "small small".
The easy gear front and rear is small front ring and big rear cog.
You shouldn't ever use small small because it has a terrible chain line, and more importantly, the chain tension in that combination is extremely high and it will wear your drivetrain really quickly. That's why its sometimes okay to have a loose chain in that combo, because you should never shift into it.
I would add that's how it should look in big-bigwith the rear suspension in full compression. Stick it in that gear & deflate the shock, then cut your chain to suit.
....also make sure your b screw is pressing against the derailleur hanger properly.
