Fun fact: this feature used to be built-in to Firefox itself.
Really? Why'd Firefox remove such a useful feature?
Security concerns? Or no one maintaining it?
Mozilla claimed that it was rarely used
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=578967
One day Mozilla will remove the web browser component of Firefox and go for AI, social media and "most used news" (pre-approved) API interaction only. 😏
"Because that's what the users want".
