I confirm: it doesn't work on my Firefox either (last version 100.0, 64-bit). First shortcut key chosen: "²" (superscript 2), then others tries (whitout the quotes of course). None works. Tried also with all my other addons disabled... same behavior: not working. Perhaps something changed in the API WebExtensions of Firefox...
This add-on has previous been indispensable. However, it recently stopped working.
I have seen the developer response regarding version 3.0. I am on that version and it is still not working. I have tried changing the shortcut key but it still doesn't work.
Hopefully it will be fixed soon.
In response to developer questions below:
Firefox Version: 90.0.2 (64-bit)
OS Version: Windows 10 (21H1)
Add-on version: 3.0
I have tried disabling all other add-ons and uninstalling and re-installing this add-on. It is still not working.
For sake of being thorough here are all my add-ons:
Beyond 20
HTTPS Everywhere
LastPass
Privacy Badger
Stylish
uBlock Origin
VTT Enhancement Suite
stopped working recently. if you update it, can you make it override feedlys own shortcuts? would love to get "o" to open again. id just submit a pr but the code is not posted on a public repo anywhere.
