It'd be nice if this prevented the nasty javascript trick where the weppage puts text into your clipboard that's completely different to the text that you highlighted. Google "copy-paste from website to terminal" for the story. So 4★ only.

today i learnt that you can mark a text, copy it with ctrl + c and paste it with CTRL + SHIFT + V and choose "unformatted text". that's why i will remove the addon BUT this addon is truely amazing and helped me alot.

This is a MASSIVE time saver! Well done.

Very low value on the Mac. Shortcut key is set to F7 which is useless. First of all F* type shortcuts on the Mac are somewhere between painful and really painful depending on the Mac model. Second F7 seems to already bound to "caret browsing" in Firefox for the Mac.

What about the "context menu" you say? Using this add-on's context menu is about the same pain level as other solutions to getting rid of formatting. So using the context menu does not justify installing this add-on.

Finally, you can set your own shortcut key, but all the obvious ones are already locked up by Firefox or its Developer Tools and can't be disabled as far as I can tell.

Even if you are willing to suffer the pain of using this add-on, it frequently barfs up error messages and fails to work.

So the net-net is that this extension really has no value for Mac users. Why is such a useless add-on being recommended by Mozilla? Based on the recommendation I installed it and wasted a few hours trying to get it to do anything useful before uninstalling it. Not the experience one would expect from a Mozilla recommended add-on.

Probably the add on I use the most. It copies the text you need without brakes, text styles or other strange things.

I have always loved this app. I find it indispensable , I Use it to save useful articles to documents and or email without all the pictures , links and ads.

Please consider adding an option to copy the text automatically when it's selected. There are other addons that do this but this would combine plaint text copying and autocoping on selection.

Thanks for writing this addon.
