How to use this add-on:
1. You make sure your cursor is in a text input box inside the window – not the address bar or search bar.
2. You press and hold the Ctrl. key.
3. While Ctrl. key is pressed, you hit the apostrophe key ['] – not the backtick (grave accent) key [`]
4. You punch the keys corresponding to the Unicode of your character.
Example. If you want to type "CO₂", you type:
1. [SHIFT+C] to input capital letter C
2. [SHIFT+O] to input capital letter O
3. [CTRL+'] to activate Unicode input
4. 2082 to input the Unicode of subscript two
Note: this add-on does not work in the "Write a review" window or in YouTube comments (but it works in YouTube search field). The author seems to not care about the shortcomings of this add-on.

Is Easy Unicode Input 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.
Easy Unicode Input requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
Risk impact analysis details

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