- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14565419, 6 days agoIt's useful for those of us who hate the new Reddit with a passion. But this extension has broken my cardinal rule of extensions: recently, it's started grabbing focus a while after Firefox has loaded switch to the tab it pops up to whine that it needs new permissions. **Anything** grabbing focus away from what I am doing is intolerable. It's a statement that the developer believes whatever I could be possibly doing at the moment (attending a meeting, giving a presentation, etc.) is less important than the needs of their extension. That's wrong. Especially given the fact that Firefox has a built-in way to alert you that a plugin needs new permissions.
Because I run Firefox on multiple machines, often with multiple partitions, I see this damned whiny tab over and over. So, into the bin it goes. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18200003, 5 months agoI think you should stop updating this extension to only support the newest Firefox version at all times. Its just a redirector, there is no reason it needs to only support the newest version of firefox at all times while dropping support for older ones.

Getting that every minute with Cookie AutoDelete...
As another reviewer said it's just a glorified redirect. Didn't know it came packed with Reddit session tracker cookies too. - Rated 2 out of 5by TheWonderAlmighty, 2 years agoSome Reddit pages don't work with the redirect https://www.reddit.com/prefs/feeds/, and the addon doesn't allow exceptions. I'm using UI changer for Reddit since it works: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ui-changer-for-reddit/.
