Discontent Firefox

Discontent

Open source extension to fight garbage content on the web.

Features & Capabilities

With the advent of incredible AI tools like ChatGPT, I fear everyone out there that makes interesting and quality content will soon be buried by an immense ocean of AI generated, SEO optimised nonsense. All you lovely people producing good stuff, all I want to do is find you. Use this extension to do so.

  • If a website is in the database and it has a bad score, it'll prepend all your search engine links with a ❌
  • If it's spicy and there's lots of votes both ways, you see a 🤨
  • If it's awesome and deserves to be cherished, you see a 💚
💚 When you find a site that is a beautiful smiling breath of fresh air; use the extension popup to vote and share your love.

❌ When you find a site that kicks down your door, calls you stupid and holds out its greasy hand demanding ad revenue; use the popup to warn the next bloke.

Works for Google, Bing & DuckDuckGo.

Is Discontent 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.

Discontent requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

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.

Discontent is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
