## Review summary

Word Replacer Max is generally well-liked for effective word substitutions and domain-based targeting. It works on desktop and on some mobile browsers (Orion), without slowing the browser or breaking pages. Examples like film→movie and Trump→the Idiot illustrate its practicality. However, mobile support is inconsistent across browsers, and the algorithm’s broad matching can cause unintended replacements (e.g., you/your). Overall, it’s a simple, useful tool with room for refinement.

### Pros

- Reliable word replacement across sites (e.g., film to movie; Trump to the Idiot).
- Per-domain replacement controls (domain-based enabling).
- Does not slow the browser or interfere with websites.
- Desktop reliability with some mobile support (Orion).

### Cons

- Mobile support is inconsistent across browsers and not available on Firefox mobile.
- Broad word matching can cause unintended replacements (overlaps like you and your).
