AI need token sure, but every local preview cost a token is riduculous. and a lifetime AI of a soon to be outdated model? and charge you extra when that model is expired which is expected in a few years? this is 100% scam

Greed is not the word. Who pays for a link previewer and complains that it takes resources... Nobody wants that ai garb.

There is a limit on the number of times per day.

Yeah no thanks I'm reporting this. Read all the 1* reviews about unnencessary bloat and locking basic features behind a paywall. The author thinks it's obvious what the extension is for, and obvious that functionality is limited without payment.

They replied to one review, saying 'MaxFocus offers more than just link previews, with features like AI and themes, all clearly mentioned "on the box."'.

Well, first search for the extension in the add-ons store: it's called "MaxFocus: Link Preview".

Then find it in FF's extension manager: it's called "MaxFocus: Link Preview & AI Assistant".

Regarding providing link previews only (which lets face it will be the reason why most people install this without reading the bottom half of the description where you buried the PRO limitations) ... that functionality only 'requires resources' if the author chooses to build it in a way that is profitable for the author. There are other better, not-functionally-restricted extensions that manage to accomplish only providing link previews by using only your device's resources, because their author instead chose to build them in a way that is functionally useful to the user.

Finally, if you read this far, your settings to disable the AI buttons don't even work.

Paying? To preview a tab? i would never! (It would have made more sense to me if only the AI was limited but NOOOOOOO...)

The extension is good, but charging for link previews is downright ridiculous. The 'free' plan has a limit of 100 previews, and after that, you have to pay. I understand putting AI features behind a paywall, but link previews should be free.

All this extension needed to be was what it says on the box; preview links without opening the tab. Instead, MaxFocus adds in unnecessary bloat like themes, a search bar(???), AI features and puts it all into a box covered in unnecessarily expensive wrapping paper. (But it's always on sale, so don't worry! You're saving money!)

The bloat makes this not worth installing.

Yeah... paywalling basic functionality is not too great. I'm also sick of every single piece of software pushing some kind of AI, if I see that I'm even more tempted to uninstall just because of that...

Edit: the fake reviews on their site also don't make me like them more... (https://maxfoc.us/welcome/?step=4&isPayment=1&plan=pro_lifetime_a)

Locking features behind a paywall, on a browser extension...?

You can only open 25 links if you don't want to buy the cheapest plan for $15.90. And even if you pay, those searches won't have the AI features they are talking about.

For AI features you need to buy their pro plan, which is supposedly $49.90! This is a joke!

Бесплатная версия совсем жлобская.

Uninstalled.

"You've reached your daily limit of 10 link previews. Upgrade to PRO to get unlimited previews and more features"

edit: what is this ai shit it's been peddling

flat out there's now a permanent button overlayed on all sites prompting to ai-ify shit and like. why

no, the one toggle does not actually disable it, and no even if you could it does not make it ok

original review:
Very useful, looks good and it's surprisingly not janky at all! Works as well as a built-in browser feature, really
Also has just one small page of (good) options&settings accessible by just clicking on the add-on icon. Which I thought was a plus--
