av Firefox user 13221093, 6 år sidanOh my god - I'd given up finding an RSVP reader for Firefox after Reasy bit the dust. Thank you SO MUCH for investing your time in this - it's great! Only two things - 1 issue, and 1 enhancement request.
Issue: Stutter doesn't keep MacOS Mojave from going to sleep, so if I'm reading a longer article or an academic journal, I have to remember to move the mouse around now and then - this may not be something you can even address, but thought I'd mention it.
Enhancement Request: Stutter doesn't seem to work with Reader View - the overlay just never appears. Again, not sure if there are limitations in extensions these days that would preclude layering over Reader View or not.
Note: I'm also running Nightly v69.01, and I'm being a bad reviewer by not testing these things in the standard release of Firefox >_> Seriously though <3 Thank you so much for this!

posta 6 år sidanHey, thanks for the review. I'm not sure firefox gives me a way to "stay awake" but I'll look into it. That would be cool during playback.
As far as the Reader View goes, Firefox greatly limits what an add-on is able to do. That's probably a good thing, honestly. The great news is, if you click on the stutter icon on a regular page, I push the webpage through Firefox's readability library before streaming it to you. That's the same library that powers the Reader View, so the experience should be similar.
Cheers - tomasino
EDIT: It looks like Google has a spec started for a "WakeLock" feature to keep screens awake. If approved, that would be a perfect solution for Stutter. There are some hacks to get it to work now, but most have drawbacks and only work in certain environments. I'm going to keep an eye on the WakeLock feature and implement it if it makes it through draft.

- Vurdering: 4 av 5av Roizen, 7 månader sidanAmazing! It's just that I can't seem to get the skip backwards and forward to function both in Firefox (nor Chrome). Maybe there's something I'm doing wrong, or dev can please look in to it. Cheers :D

Click on the current binding and you can press your own key to bind your own scroll buttons. That may work better for you. - Vurdering: 5 av 5av NikWillOrStuff, eit år sidanI was impressed!! Sometimes you have to highlight the text you want to read before turning it on, depends on the website, but the keys are customizable and everything has been working for me without any fuss.

- Vurdering: 4 av 5av Herr Einzige, 2 år sidanAdding another great review for this. Perhaps I missed it but it would be nice to have a pause button to allow me to stop and start where I left off. Otherwise great, helped turn reading an article into a better experience.

posta 2 år sidanHi there! You can click on the stutter bar to pause or use the keyboard shortcut to pause/resume. The keyboard shortcuts are customizable in the add-on settings page. Cheers. - Vurdering: 4 av 5av Firefox user 15304512, 2 år sidan

- Vurdering: 5 av 5av Firefox user 17351756, 3 år sidanI love this! I've been looking for something like this for a while.
Good amount of configuration and nice ability to control color with themes and move the bar around.
I'd love the option of being able to control font and font size. - Vurdering: 5 av 5av TachyLubdub, 3 år sidan
- Vurdering: 4 av 5av Firefox user 16915145, 3 år sidanGreat plugin. I will rate 5 stars if you add a keybinding to quickly lookup the dictionary. Dictionary(dot)com is a good one and easy to implement.
- Vurdering: 4 av 5av Esh44, 3 år sidanWorks really well. However, I cannot seem to use the extension when I open a pdf file in firefox.

posta 3 år sidanSadly, the browser add-on API does not let me target PDFs. It's a browser limitation and nothing I can fix in the add-on. - Vurdering: 4 av 5av Gen, 4 år sidanpretty good, there are improvements that can be made but works for what it is
- Vurdering: 5 av 5av Johnathan James, 4 år sidanIt worked exactly as I imagined it should, right out of the box.

Also despite the homepage link being a github page, I do not see the mention of the add-on being open source; in my opinion this would be a good marketing point to add ! - Vurdering: 5 av 5av Firefox user 13517976, 5 år sidanGreat tool - any chance of letting us tweak how many words appear in-line at a time? Or how many lines appear?
I'd like to run it at 600wpm with 5-10 words per line, 2 lines + increase from there to improve reading speed.
Of course, even without capability it's awesome - Vurdering: 5 av 5av Edison Orellana, 6 år sidanSpreed was the best fast reader on Chrome. Spreed doesn't exist on Firefox as of now, so this is the best alternative. It would be nice if we could get some more readable font options, like something with serifs.
