Thank you so much!! Honestly one of the most useful extension to have in Firefox. I cant absorb the fact that Mozilla still didn't verify and recommended your plugin yet. Very underrated gem!!! I hope this doesn't become abandon ware.

This is such an underrated gem and something that I wanted to develop myself but never got around to it. I heavily recommend *at least* trying it out !

A great tool for listening to lectures! Be prepared for the vast amount of knowledge you'll encounter in the same time—it's going to be immense.
