2023-03-20	Jan Mendaros	Unfortunately still broken. Hasn't worked for any number i tried.
2020-11-09	P N	Doesn't work. Give no result on any page. That's a pity, it was a good idea.
2019-01-21	Torgefahr	I would really appreciate it if the same value was annotated only once in a given page. Also, an interactive element to temporarily disable entries which mess up the readability would be nice.
2018-12-27	skytomo	動かない (doesn't work.)
2018-05-26	Alex Chandel	Been broken for a while.
2018-04-05	Victoria Reid	doesn't give any results. at all.
2017-09-26	Petya Szombathy	i'd like an added benefit of seeing US vs metric values
2016-12-23	Anza Hanif Athallah	Overall a great extension, however some of the entries are too technical for daily use. For example, "1 meter" is translated as "≈ wavelength of the lowest UHF and highest VHF radio frequency, 300 MHz", which is something most people (including me) don't understand or use in daily life. It would be better if other practical comparisons were added (like "1 meter ≈ length of a baseball bat" or something).
2016-11-12	Skipson	Works great and gives me a lot of things to compare too. The only thing I would like is a Domain Blacklist, so I can tell it not to work on a website where it messes up the formatting
2016-09-08	Matt Bowyer	It's good, but just a couple of issues - as other reviewers have pointed out, some of the comparisons really aren't helpful (wavelengths in particular really aren't something you can visualise!). Also, there are issues with collections of numbers such as LS1 V (an engine number) - DoN reads this as one volt, which isn't really helpful - if a number has a space before the unit, then the program should really ignore the number if it's linked to the previous text.
