Review summary

OpenLorem is appreciated for its reliable generation of random dummy text, versatile HTML options, and seamless context menu integration. Users value its open-source nature and rich feature set, including unique text types like bacon and dino ipsum. However, privacy concerns arise due to extensive permissions requested. The add-on lacks certain usability features such as offline mode, copy-to-clipboard button, better naming conventions, and markdown support. Overall, it is a useful tool with room for enhancements to improve user experience and security.

Context menu integration is praised for ease of adding text via right-click.

Cons

Requires broad permissions like access to all website data and browser tabs, causing privacy concerns.
Missing certain user-friendly features like 'copy all' button and right-click support in input fields.
Lacks offline functionality, which some users desire.
Some interface elements like button names could be more intuitive (e.g., 'Display' vs 'Refresh').
No incrementers on quantity fields and no markdown output option, limiting usability.
