puts pronouns next to usernames on mastodon

Features & Capabilities

Puts pronouns next to usernames on Mastodon and Mastodon forks. This extension is still in development, so your instance may be broken or unsupported. Please tell your instance admin to contact us at github.com/itsvipra/protoots if that is the case.

FAQ: Why does ProToots need permission for all websites?

The addon needs to determine whether or not the site you are currently browsing is a Mastodon server. For that to work, it requires access to all sites. Otherwise, each existing Mastodon server would have to be explicitly added.

Why can't i see any ProPlates?

It is likely your instance is not supported. This is because forks of Mastodon all work slightly differently and we cannot account for every version out there. If ProToots isn't working on your instance please tell your admins to contact us here on Github.

Works really nice so far, of course some formattings or pronounspage links still cause problems, but many things are already worked on according to their Github. Thanks for this!

Is ProToots 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.

ProToots requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious.

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.

ProToots has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
