BetterTTV

Enhances Twitch and YouTube with new features, emotes, and more.
What is BetterTTV?
BetterTTV is a Firefox add-on created to improve the user experience on Twitch and YouTube. It introduces extra features including additional emotes, an improved emote menu, custom keywords, split chat lines for easy reading, and the ability to see deleted links and messages. Users also enjoy the anon chat feature that allows them to join a channel without appearing on the user list as well as automatic claiming of channel points bonuses, drops, and moments. It also declutters the platform by hiding recommended channels, bits, replies, notices, and community highlights.

The good ol' tried and trusted BTTV. 7TV doesn't work on Firefox.

Works good for channel points and drop redeems, but emotes and emote menus don't work at all. Actually, the entire settings menu isn't there when I open chat settings- so it seems like nothing in that regard is functioning. Hopefully this gets fixed, because it's been like this for a long while (even after removing and re-adding the addon multiple times) EDIT (READ IF YOU HAVE THIS ISSUE): Okay, if you have this issue remove the extension, clear the cache of both twitch and the bttv website, restart your browser, then come back here and install the extension. A page should pop up asking for permissions, hit "allow"
