User Reviews
Pros
- When it works, it reliably opens new tabs to the right of the current tab (fixes Firefox’s default behavior).
- Many users report instant, easy installation and immediate effect—simple and does what it promises.
- Positive feedback from several users who’ve used it for years and appreciate its utility.
Cons
- Many users report the add‑on is unreliable or stops working altogether.
- When it fails, new tabs can open anywhere to the right instead of immediately adjacent to the current tab.
- Multiple reviewers suggest the extension appears unmaintained/abandoned (no recent updates).

Despite the reviews claiming it doesn't work now, it does work on my side.

Doesn't work anymore. It's now useless. With 10 tabs open on my right, it can appear anywhere in there and not on my immediate right.
It looks like developer gave up on it since it's been about a year since it's last update.

Is Always Right Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Always Right requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
Risk impact analysis details
- Critical Grants access to browser tabs, which can be used to track user browsing habits and history, presenting a privacy concern.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
Always Right has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
