I have already encountered several cases where Fakespot reports terrible review quality and very low product ratings where the actual reviews are clearly reasonable and thoughtful. No, I'm not a seller. Never sold a thing on Amazon in my life. No, I'm not a shill. I'm a long-term Firefox user and A...

There should be a way to allow extensions to execute only on specific websites like the Site access option in Edge does, this improves extensions usability and may also enhance privacy.  

Mozilla needs to transfer their own add-ons to mobile too. My 3 recommendations are: https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/addon/facebook-container/  https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/addon/multi-account-container  https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/addon/fakespot-fake-reviews-amazon/s/
