My Reviews

Battery Saver

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Why must I enter a name?

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (4.4.0). 

Addons Recent Updates

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Nice! The page for this extension could be more descriptive. Without installing the extension, I had no idea how much more might be shown.

Speed Dial

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great with Waterfox 56.0.3!

User Agent Switcher

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Addons Manager Hilite

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Top Mots dans la page

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0). 

MR Tech About:About

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Apparently not effective with Waterfox 56.0.1 on FreeBSD-CURRENT.

I guess that the browser compatibility information at addons.mozilla.org is outdated.

Free Memory Button

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

No button after adding the extension to Waterfox 56.0.1 on FreeBSD-CURRENT.

Periodic Memory Usage Dumper

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Folder Pane View Switcher

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Testing 1.12beta2 with Thunderbird 52.4.0 (64-bit) on FreeBSD-CURRENT.

Nice! I had forgotten that the views existed.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.12). 

AMO Browsing for SeaMonkey

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Five stars for 0.9.17, now I'll test pre-release 0.10.0 alpha 2 from https://github.com/lemon-juice/AMO-Browsing-for-SeaMonkey/releases …

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.9.17). 

SeaMonkey Vertical Tab Bar

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Without this extension, I would rarely use SeaMonkey.

Five gold stars if, in the future, drag-and-drop ordering can be made better; and if the sidebar can be resized by dragging.

Stylish - Custom themes for any website

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

There should be clearer forewarning of the possible consequences of allowing an update from 2.1.1 to 3.0.1.

I see developer responses such as:

> … We apologize for the inconvenience and hope that after you migrate your styles …

Developers, please: make things clear _before_ inconveniences occur.

The new interface is not suitably clear. 'Manage all styles' does not manage all styles, and so on.

After 3.0.0 I reinstalled 2.1.1.

Now: from 3.0.1 back to 2.1.1 …

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.0.1).  This user has a previous review of this add-on.

Stylish - Custom themes for any website

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

The release note for 3.0.0 offered no forewarning that some types of style that are usable with 2.1.1, to which I have reverted, are unusable with 3.0.0.

For the unacceptably poor release note, and the negative consequence: the lowest possible rating. One star.

At a future date I might take a different approach to the required styles but for the foreseeable future, it will be easier for me to continue with what's trusted: the legacy extension, not constrained by WebExtensions APIs.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.0.0). 

Session Manager

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Five gold stars.

Session Manager is – amongst many other things – an essential workaround for a Mozilla bug that can cause the first window of Firefox to be non-functional for a variety of extensions.

Long live legacy Session Manager! Long live Firefox 56!

My top ten extensions for Firefox 56.0.2:

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.8.1.13). 

Page Translator

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/-/19044?u=grahamperrin

– I'd prefer this extension to not consume space from the location field in Firefox 55.x.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.0.1). 

Add-ons Manager Context Menu

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Disable Add-on Compatibility Checks

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Apparently effective with Firefox 55.0.3 (64-bit) on FreeBSD-CURRENT.

Video editor online Avidemux with SeaMonkey

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Pros: more options than can be found at http://www.offidocs.com/index.php/desktop-online-messaging-apps/seamonkey-online-internet-application-suite

Cons: with or without the extension, the option 'Automatically fit to browser window' is not reliable. I typically see unused space to the right, whilst the left of the application is obscured.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.1.9). 

Slim Add-ons Manager

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A great complement to Vertical Tabs Reloaded https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/vertical-tabs-reloaded/ and sidebars.
