2022-06-13 Firefox user 17450817 This plugin works well overall. However, it does not work without intervention for embedded audio players. In other words, I have to start playing the audio and then adjust the volume whereas for links to audio such as word pronunciations and videos work fine without intervention. I can just set it lower and it automatically plays lower. That said, I would like the control to be a bit more granular. While one notch can be a little to high, the next notch down is a little too low. Similar to the embedded audio problem, the same issue occurs with embedded videos; at least those in presentations within Canvas. Fix these issues and I will give this five stars and edit my review.
2022-05-13 Firefox user 17412272 I have a sensitive hearing and this addon really helped me enjoy some webpages I couldn't otherwise.
2022-04-01 Pnévma the volume isnt indepedent per tab as described. or maybe it doesnt work on dark mode like some users say. irrelevant because most of us use dark mode.
2022-02-08 Mthoth Works as intended, and provides lower volume as well, not just a boost. However, if I'm listening to a playlist on Youtube, whenever there's an onscreen ad (a box in the middle of the screen), playback goes silent between tracks. One has to move the slider for sound to re-appear. If there's no ad, sound playback seems unaffected.
