RedditNotifier-WE Firefox

RedditNotifier-WE

By: Druco
Notifies you of new messages and posts on reddit.

Features & Capabilities

Updated version of RedditNotifier by Bradley Rosenfeld to work with Firefox Quantum.

Features

  • Toolbar button to allow easy access to your reddit inbox.
  • Notifications (can be turned off) when you have new messages or moderator mail.
  • Watch your favorite subreddit for new posts.
  • Plays a sound when there are new messages (can be turned off).
  • A persistent bubble on the toolbar button that tells you exactly how many messages you have.
  • Panel to quickly view and open unread messages and subreddits.
  • Restartless; just install and you're ready to go!
  • Doesn't store login credentials. Just log into reddit like you normally would.
  • Customizable refresh time (10 seconds to infinity).

CAUTION: This add-on DOES NOT work if the built-in Tracking Protection is enabled in Firefox (under Preferences->Privacy & Security). I don't know of any way around this so it is unlikely to be fixed in the future. It is known to work with Ghostery so add-ons that provide tracking protection may provide an alternative to the built in feature.

Is RedditNotifier-WE 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.

RedditNotifier-WE requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

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.

RedditNotifier-WE is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
