User Reviews
One of my favorite addons, but it is in need of a new kanji button to change the current kanji.

Honestly, Love the aesthetic; Very clean, good layout, and nice contrasting colours on the front end.
It's cool to open up a new tab and learn a bit of language and writing from another part of the world.
Almost a word of the day calendar. Brings some joy to the monotony of WFH.

Is KanjiStart 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.
KanjiStart requires very minimum permissions.
Risk impact analysis details
- Medium Can alter new tab settings; fairly benign but with some capability to affect user experience.
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.
KanjiStart is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
