2023-04-04 GlyphCreep Doesn't recognise the mail.proton.me domain and wont let me add my account to it, basically rendering it pointless
2023-03-20 Firefox user 17827887 the extension itself doesn't seem to want to log me in but if you download the file from github it seems to work. https://github.com/gitladen7/protonmail-webextension/issues/23 upload the .xpi after clicking the gear icon in the add-ons tab
2023-01-10 Firefox user 13417063 Sorry, but it simply does not work and the instructions are inaccurate. I will try to download the add-on at another time.

2022-06-17 kosegi Recognized only one of my 3 protonmail accounts. Worked great for about 3 days then suddenly stopped sending notifications. I'm now using proton's built-in desktop notifications, which is not ideal but better than nothing.
2022-06-15 rafikiphoto Just doesn't work. I get a toolbar icon which opens to no information, just basic settings with no account or details. No unread indicator appears. What happened?
2021-08-16 Firefox user 15504130 not a lot to say, despite my best efforts i cant get it working. ill come back to this one at a later date to try again maybe some updates go bye. this is something i could really use.
