2021-05-24 Firefox user 13290931 Thanks, just what I was looking for!
2021-03-31 Firefox user 16794152 I just wish the NID search preferences cookie could be set to read only after I configure it as I need with results in English.
2021-02-26 Firefox user 16534308 It would be very helpful if you can add a symbol to the toolbar so people can disable the extension much easier. Apart from this issue plug-in is very good and works on macOS High Sierra - Firefox 87 developer edition.
2020-12-30 Firefox user 13737162 Helps give a giant middle finger to Google for the few times I begrudgingly find myself using them instead of Duck Duck Go.
