very good.

i find it annoying that whenever there is a new browser extension on HN, i ask for a "firefox version" to which the response is almost always kneejerk "eww no" or something to that end. So to see a firefox extension, that's refreshing. I hope you continue working on it and help improve the extension ecosystem

The same people bemoaning the war on general purpose computing or the surveillance state happily using Chrome has always been a truly bizarre disconnect I’ve never understood.

Maybe it’s age? I used Firefox since firebird, and Phoenix, and Netscape, but saying “try Firefox” might feel like talking about an archaeological relic to a 28 year old who has never even seen Firefox running.
