2024-01-23	Firefox user 12626933	Does not stop the meta tag http-equiv="refresh".
2023-10-30	Firefox user 18123518	Was working awesome in Ghostery Browser but FB imposed 2 stage security & now won't accept PIN to log in if Stop Auto Reload or FBCleaner are enabled. Need a workaround ...
2023-10-21	Firefox user 14371892	Ever have a tab on Twitter/X pinned and come back to it later, only to have the whole page hard-refresh before you can read it again? This fixes that annoyance no problem. BTW I logged into my Firefox account for the first time in 5 years to leave this review, that is how happy I was that this annoyance was solved. THANK YOU for this plugin! 💯

2023-03-11	Wirek	It works great on annoying filmweb.pl where settings/flags like: accessibility.blockautorefresh true browser.meta_refresh_when_inactive.disabled true ...in FF 107.0.1 (64-bit) didn't work. Thank you very much!
