Review summary

Pros: easy to use, quick Lighthouse analysis in Firefox desktop, and time-saving reporting features. Cons: lacks localhost testing, frequent test failures/load errors, and reliance on an external Lighthouse viewer (internet needed) which hampers local testing. Android support is limited and Chrome tends to perform better for Lighthouse. Overall, convenient for quick checks but unreliable for local development or offline testing.

Pros

Easy to use and simple experience
Provides Lighthouse analysis in Firefox desktop, saving time
Quick saving and printing of Lighthouse reports
Helps analyze the site and reduces dependence on PageSpeed Insights

Cons

No localhost/local development testing; can't scan local sites
Frequent test failures and page load/document errors
Relies on redirect to external Lighthouse viewer / requires internet; not suitable for local testing

I know Google prefers that, but it's not Google's website, it's mine, and it's not Google's users, they're mine, so it kind of makes this useless to have Google make a decision for me that I'm not interested in seeing desktop stats, when I actually am more interested in them than the mobile stats.
