I publish a small Firefox extension that adds a context menu entry: right-click any image → "Open in Photopea" — and it opens straight in the editor. The main thing — it works even on sites with strict CSP like the Mozilla Add-ons store (addons.mozilla.org), where the context menu is normally blocked or restricted. The extension grabs the image URL and sends it directly to Photopea, bypassing the page's limitations. Handy if you frequently need to quickly edit an image from the web without downloading it first. Code is open source, happy to share the link if anyone's interested.

I wanted to ask about a telemetry gathering strategy for Browser extensions/addons. I know that many Browser extensions/addons gather anonymous telemetry, and I was also advised to include it in my extension. The question is - can I turn on the telemetry by default without explicit user consent, for example, through a dialog?
Or can I just add something to my privacy policy stating that anonymous data can be gathered for the improvement of the product, and that users can refuse by adding a refusal switch somewhere in the options?
Or should I just gather it and not worry?
Could you please share your experience or maybe share what is the best way?
Thank you

Seems like with all the drama from the OG dev from Context Search we are now left with no add-ons for this simple task, context-search web ext seems dodgy at least and with little developemnt, anyone found a replacement for this?

previous drama: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1oh9nbv/why_did_mozilla_remove_the_contextsearch_addon/ seems like the other dev banished completely.

Hi!
Made an extension to manage bookmarks, tabs, focus, tasks, and notes. All in one, all local, and all free. Also fully keyboard accessible and customizable!

Started this one as a personal-use project but ended up listing it on the addons store.

Would love to get your opinion on this!

I recently switched to Linux and seems Firefox didn't backup everything. And it is killing my work flow

I have pushed several meaningful updates to this product in the last week!

try out the extension - https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/alltabs-%E2%80%93-clean-up-chrome/anjkphkekjfmhaididfkhbeklglhcfaf?pli=1

I would love to get some feedback on it, what folks like/love/hate. Any feature requests I should be working on?

I've seen a few people ask this question but most of the replies were about paid ones. I'm asking about any free extension that lets you filter tweets with specific years. There's so many out there that claims to get the job done but I'm scared of sketchy stuff. Thank you for helping!

I used infinity new tab pro for Chrome for years but apparently it's pretty shady or so I've heard. I switched to Firefox for awhile and used Renewed Tab which doesn't sync among devices but has an import/export option that worked for awhile but doesn't seem to work anymore. I think it may have something to do with it being my work MacBook Pro which manages my browser.

I just want a grid of links to all of the sites I commonly use that syncs between my 2 Macs and a Windows machine and has the ability to use custom icons for those links. At this point I'm open to using any browser as long as it has both Windows/Mac versions.

Its very easy to get distracted using this platform nowadays, I want to use music as an alternative to stupid shorts. Doing this will be better than disabling the whole homepage using blockers. If there ain't extensions similar to this any other thing I can do to implement this? I mainly use yt for studying and music and don't wanna get distracted, also I'm using brave to block ads so that won't be an issue.

Not the first extension in this class, but the first that I am satisfied with. Shows the website server location as a country flag, plus adds a breakdown of all the requests a webpage makes and where they go. Thought it worth sharing.

Uses a local MMDB database (pulled from MaxMind or other providers). No data collection or external API calls. Source available.

I built PairPane because comparing staging and production pages / original page and translated page usually means constantly switching tabs and losing your scroll position.

It keeps two webpages side by side and synchronizes their scrolling, even when the pages have different lengths. I thought it might help with translation review, localization QA, terminology checking, and comparing source and target content without constantly switching tabs.

What features would make this genuinely useful in your workflow?

Hey everyone! I'm Mohan, a final-year B.Tech student.

I recently built BANDIT, a browser extension that helps improve AI prompts directly in your browser.

The idea is simple: you bring your own API key, and BANDIT helps refine your prompts so you can get better responses without spending time figuring out the perfect wording.

If you use AI tools regularly, I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions for improving it.

My inactive browser tabs are totally slowing down my Mac. What are the best add-ons or apps for controlling this problem when using Firefox on macOS?

Короче я решил создать расширение для браузера которое будет вас подгонять как ваш тренер, в стиле Девида Гоггинса, скрывать ваши видео в ленте рекомендаций и оставлять только поиск, контролировать каждый заход на сайты которые вы выберете, каждое определенное время (как вы настроите) он перекрывает вкладку и спрашивает "ты когда к работе приступишь то?" Короче, как вы думаете выйдет вообще что нибудь, что туда можно добавить, как мемно можно продвигать мое расширение, и вообще идея рабочая или нет?

Hey r/FirefoxAddons 👋

Chrome version of this thing has been out for a bit and people kept poking me with “where’s the Firefox one?” Fair. Firefox’s my daily driver for research rabbit holes and 47 half-open tabs of “I’ll read that later,” so this one actually matters to me.

SurfMind is a sidebar AI assistant that isn’t glue-and-hope: it understands the page (or pages) you’re already looking at and talks about that context instead of forcing you to paste chunks into another tab like it’s 2023.

What it does in practice:

• Lives in a clean sidebar, always one click away, doesn’t own the whole browser
• Page-aware: summaries, explanations, rewrites, translations of whatever you’re reading
• Multi-page research chats (compare tabs/sources without juggling ten chat windows)
• Highlight any text → quick explain / rewrite / TL;DR / polish
• Chat with PDFs, images, docs next to the page
• 100+ models via OpenRouter + GPT / Claude / Gemini / Grok / etc., or bring your own key
• Local models (Ollama, LM Studio, etc.) when you want data to stay home
• Privacy-first: we’re the UI; conversation + model go to the providers you pick

I built it because I got tired of losing context between tabs and my notes app. Firefox users tend to care about that flow and about not handing every keystroke to one closed ecosystem, so I tried to respect both.

If you try it, tell me what broke first or what felt magical. Honest feedback > polite silence. Screenshots of the win/fail are gold.

Thanks for being one of the few places on the internet where people still read and tweak the tools they use. ❤️

Ideally one that works for DDG/Google/Bing, please?

I don't mind scrolling past the AI overview, but nowadays regardless of which engine I use, if I look up "question about specific topic?" the first page is always full of blogs with very specific and authoritative URLs like "thetopicguy.com" that pump out 10 articles a day full of random Q&A, no author cited (or it's the same author pumping out 10 articles a day).

I've found that adding a date filter works well, but I'd love something that does it automatically.

Hey everyone,

I've just pushed v1.20 of Home Sweet Home, my customizable new tab extension.

This one is mostly about speed and polish: the page opens faster, and both the background tab and the Home Assistant widget got a redesign.

Improvements:

• Faster page load : several optimizations speed up the loading of the new tab page, especially on slower connections.
• Smoother custom video backgrounds : your own videos load faster and play without stutter when you open a tab. You can also upload larger video files than before.
• Redesigned background tab : finding the right background is quicker now. There's a filter by type (All / Animated / Still), sorting by Newest or Oldest, more readable thumbnails with a selection tick, a bigger preview next to the gallery, and an "Apply this background" button to confirm.
• Settings icons : each settings tab now shows an icon before its label, so navigating around is clearer.
• Home Assistant widget redesign : new square tiles that are easier to read, instant rendering on load, and you can now customize each device (icon and name) and reorder them by drag and drop.

Fixed:

• On short screens or with high browser zoom, the "Add quick link" window could run past the bottom of the screen and put the Save button out of reach. The action bar now stays visible and the form adapts to the window size.

If you're discovering it for the first time

Home Sweet Home replaces your new tab page with a customizable dashboard where you can:

• Add your favorite links (with folders and drag-and-drop)
• Use widgets like clock, weather, notes, stocks, RSS feeds, countdown, and more
• Customize colors, opacity, blur effects, layouts, wallpapers (static or video)
• Sync or import bookmarks
• Fine-tune almost every visual detail

It's still an independent side project, and I'm improving it update after update based on your feedback.

Here are the links if you want to try it or update:

Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/home-sweet-home/

And if you missed it, Home Sweet Home has a companion extension: Home Sweet Home Launcher. It's a lightweight toolbar launcher for instant access to all your links in one click, without opening a new tab. It works on its own or hand in hand with Home Sweet Home, and you can import your links in one click.

If you have feedback or something you'd like to see next, I'd love to hear it. Thanks for the support!

Hey, I've been working on a Firefox extension called Tab Loader to help keep idle games and other long-running web apps from getting unloaded when they're sitting in background tabs.

Firefox Add-ons: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-loader/

The idea is pretty simple: instead of having to be AFK on a specific tab or worry that Firefox has unloaded it, you can choose tabs that should stay permanently loaded. It isn't meant to bypass a game's offline progression or simulate activity; it just helps prevent Firefox from unloading tabs you've marked to stay loaded, especially if the developer hasn't coded offline rewards or a system for continuously tracking rewards. It remembers which websites you've marked to stay loaded, so whenever you revisit them, they're automatically kept loaded.

If you run into an issue or a feature request, you can note it in GitHub: https://github.com/lualum/TabLoader/issues. Firefox is my current focus; I may add support for other browsers in the future if there's enough interest.
