Laden Sie Firefox-Sammlungen herunter und erstellen Sie sie, um Ihre bevorzugten Erweiterungen und Themes im Auge zu behalten. Entdecken Sie die Cursed Addons – Dont use these lol. Okay more details: some are utter garbage, some pretend to be something they are not, and a lot of big tech doing proprietary tracking stuff under the hood of "security" or even "privacy through a VPN".

These are just functionality you don’t want which they also say they do, nothing seems to be wrong with the addons themselves… I could say the both for a bee theme on the marketplace and put it in cursed if that’s really the reason

No they dont offer functionality I dont want. Security? Privacy? Of course! They do false promises and trick users that… you know have an Antivirus program on their system.

How do these extensions do that? I’m not sure what you mean, I tried it and later uninstalled it a few days ago and saw nothing wrong… The open in edge extension literally just adds the edge protocol in front of the link

Haha I guess the open in edge addon has nothing wrong in its code.
