- Rated 1 out of 5by CyberAqyn, 4 years agoDestructive add-on. When copying from Simplenote.com notes text longer than 10 lines, this app truncates it making looking like
_____________________
beginning of text
..............................
...the end
________________
The middle part just disappears. - Rated 2 out of 5by Sourav Goswami, 4 years agoReal nice addon. But there are two destructive problems:
1. It disables secondary click (right click for most people) on sites like YouTube, and google drive and mega. Without right click, google drive and mega are completely unusable.
2. As a developer myself, I tend to write my own HTML and CSS, and every time I do that, and open my own app without jQuery, I get Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
file:///tmp/p.html:1
p.html:1:445
... so for any developers, that wrote 20 lines of HTML CSS will be surprised to see what's going on! The developer of this extension must be very noob because they haven't considered this small yet very important problem!!
So 2 stars but not 1 star because it gets the work done. - Rated 1 out of 5by reikred, 4 years agoLately I have noticed in Firefox that the mouse-3 context menu, including the "copy video URl at current time" (CVUACT) item, does not appear. It turns out that the addon enable-selection somehow blocks the youtube context menu.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Darxide, 4 years agoWorks, but breaks a lot of sites. For example, it completely disables the ability to copy anything from any Google Docs including Google Sheets. Ctrl+C doesn't work, right click and copy doesn't work, picking copy from the edit menu doesn't work. Entirely broken.
This addon takes the wrong approach to fix text selection. I'll be hunting for a different addon that doesn't break so many sites. - Rated 5 out of 5by Ilya Rysenkov, 4 years agoThanks, works great with fanfiction.net, when you want to translate a word, and you can't copy it.

- Rated 4 out of 5by tech234a, 5 years agoWhile this extension is useful for its purpose, it seems to unintentionally disable custom JavaScript context menus in webpages (the regular browser context menu appears instead). Some places this happens include YouTube videos, Google Docs, and Google Drive. I would appreciate it if this was fixed. Thanks!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15771112, 5 years agobreaks many websites because it injects jquery code into each and every website. wrong approach!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Red_AM, 5 years agoWorks perfectly! No privacy breaching either (I checked the code) so you can trust this add-on.
- Rated 3 out of 5by pinewheel, 5 years agoPositive: It also prevents pages, that allow select and copy, from adding their copyright claim to the text copied to the clipboard. Perfect. Example: https://www.chinahandys.net/redmi-k30-testbericht/
Negative: Unfortunately it disables the special right click menu of chronometer.com (on added foods) so the browser's menu shows up instead. Needs a blacklist. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14152901, 5 years agoWorked for ali express so I can copy and paste my tracking numbers
