Review summary

Users praise URL Link for enabling quick searching of selected text and appreciate the developer's efforts in maintaining it. However, multiple reviews mention the complicated menu structure with too many submenus, making usage cumbersome. Selection handling can produce incorrect links if text includes multiple links or extra characters. There's a desire for better customization options and default behaviors, such as opening links in new tabs. Overall, it is considered a useful tool but with room for UI and functionality improvements.

Pros

Enables opening of selected text as a URL link in various applications, enhancing browsing and email handling (notably in Thunderbird).
Offers good options and flexibility in searching selected text using web-apps.
The developer is responsive and hardworking, maintaining compatibility with Firefox updates.
Users appreciate the security aspect of the add-on.
It facilitates easy access to search functions, making it a valuable tool for quick lookups.

Cons

The menu system is overly complex with too many submenus, requiring multiple clicks to access common actions.
Does not process selections correctly when multiple links or surrounding text is selected, causing malformed links.
Lacks preference editing capabilities, limiting customization by users.
Some users wish the add-on would open links in new tabs by default rather than replacing the current tab.
Initial versions had issues with not appearing in context menus or lacking shortcuts.
