Summary
Analyze keywords

With this addon you can more easily capture into your account a post, or a user url, from any other Mastodon instance. What you need is not much more than putting your account url, as instance/@username, into the addon settings, log in to your account and right click into any post.

Safety
Risk impact

MastoLink is risky to use as it requires a number of sensitive permissions that can potentially harm your browser and steal your data. Exercise caution when installing this add-on. Review carefully before installing. We recommend that you only install MastoLink if you trust the publisher.

Risk likelihood

MastoLink may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
