    I'm happy with this extension! However, the extension doesn't remember my choice to turn off notifications, so whenever I restart my browser it turns on again by default. Once this gets fixed, I'll give it 5 stars :)

    Mozilla just approved PortAuthority v2.0.0 which has persistent settings and added the whitelist (gear icon). Enjoy!

    Notifications can't be disabled either globally or for individual sites. They re-enable themselves after the browser is restarted.

    I like this extension for browsing the web, but when I launch jupyter notebooks from the terminal, I have to disable this addon so it will redirect to the localhost port properly. It would be nice to have a way to add per-site exceptions, or an exception for localhost in general.
