My resensies
Complete YouTube Saver
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
This was simply the best and easiest direct downloader for YouTube, thanks to the pop up menu showing all available formats.
Regarding slow speed, this is coming server side from YouTube... ANY utility will have the same speed restrictions. Looks like they are throttling their bandwidth so nothing plays faster than it would for streaming... understandable; the amount of bandwidth they use must be staggering.
Sadly, it looks like this legacy add-on finally stopped working all together recently, as it will no longer download anything. The pop-up window showing all available formats is still working and useful however.
I would encourage the author to come back... web extensions isn't really needed as there are several XUL forks of Firefox now that people are using that this add-on in its current form can still work on... Pale Moon, Basilisk, and Waterfox, for example.
Stylish - Custom themes for any website
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Perhaps the solution here is to make the "Web Extension" version of Stylish a separate add-on. It's what other developers have done, for example the Print Edit developer. It's a much better solution than fake 4-5 star reviews, which certainly isn't winning you any points back with users.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Firefox 54.0.1, updated to Stylish 3.0.1, lost all styles. Reinstalled styles, but they don't work. Stylish only shows "You still don't have themes installed for this site" even though I do. Nothing works. Huge, major fail. How could this have been published like this? How could Mozilla have approved this? Useless waste of my time. Rolling back to real actual add-on version that works as expected and intended.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Have used this for years.
This is the kind of plug-in that Mozilla was supposed to be all about. "Your browser, your way." Add functionality, add toolbar buttons, etc.
Mozilla has transformed into Chrome. Why use it at all after 54.0.1 or 57?
If/when I have to update beyond 54.0.1, it will be Waterfox, which hopefully will work with this plugin.
Complete YouTube Saver
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
This is the only tool that I know of that can download *all* YouTube streams in their original form.
Other tools (including tools that are **not** free):
1. Only download three pre-muxed and low quality encoded files (flv 240, mp4 360, and mp4 720), and
2. **Re-encode** those files to make "fake" 1080p files and/or 480p files.
Complete YouTube Saver can download the *actual* 1080p and other high quality video DASH streams, *and* high bitrate audio streams, then **only** uses ffmpeg to mux the stream content to a MP4 file format (there's NO re-encoding, it's the same encode that plays direct from YouTube. You have the option of downloading the higher quality DASH streams for 1080p, 720p, 360p, 240p, etc., as well as *only* high bitrate audio streams... a lot of people don't realize that many YouTube videos actually have 256K CBR and/or 192K VBR streams available, and Complete YouTube Saver can download these in their native M4A encoding!)
While YouTube is not encrypted for the most part, the actual download links for the streams are, which Complete YouTube Saver is able to decrypt from your browser's ability to play the links. YouTube regularly changes the way this works, and it usually stops Complete YouTube Saver from working, so with no more updates, this final version won't last very long.
It would be an ABSOLUTE SHAME to lose this important and useful tool because 150 people (of the over 22,000 users) could not spare $2.00 per month.
Some points to keep in mind about Patreon:
1) For the Patreon "rewards" of adding your name to the donations page and/or adding your name to the "about" window, ***YOU HAVE THE OPTION TO JUST PLEDGE AND NOT HAVE YOUR NAME ADDED TO ANYTHING***, if privacy is a concern for you.
2) YOU CAN EDIT YOUR PLEDGE ***AFTER*** PLEDGING!!
Please don't let this add-on die!
Complete YouTube Saver
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Folks, this is the only WORKING app that lets you download full 1080P from YouTube WITHOUT UPCONVERTING FROM 720P. You NEED FFMPEG in order for it to work, and you should also configure the plugin to NOT HIDE the FFMPEG window. Do that and it WILL WORK.
********BUT*************
You NEED version 5.5.3 or it will NOT WORK.
In a very sad turn of events, Mozilla, going against its users, has removed version 5.5.3 from their site. I in fact had a Mozilla moderator tell me that he believes that addons like this should be completely banned as he views that this addon is only used for "stealing." Wrap your head around that for a moment. This is also not the first time that Mozilla has removed working versions of Complete YouTube saver from their site with no explanation.
Sadly, it seems there is no Internet link to download version 5.5.3 anywhere else on the net as the developer does not want to set up a GitHub for some reason which would be the best way to solve this problem.
I recommend that you visit the developer's site, and send an e-mail to the e-mail address posted on their front page and request version 5.5.3 from them.
Hopefully something will be figured out soon to support the users of this very useful addon.
Find In Numbers
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Not only does the add on not work, it breaks the entire Find function in Firefox, starting with version 25.0. Author has apparently stated he will not update the plugin.
Classic Toolbar Buttons [Tb24-58] (discontinued)
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
***UPDATE*** - The below review was written without my realizing that the ability to right click individual toolbars and change icon size is **NOT** default Firefox behavior, but behavior that is added from an extension called "toolbarmode" by JSLover, which I installed quite some time ago and forgotten about. This extension has not been updated since 2011. So, the problem is due to that extension, not Classic Toolbar Buttons!
It would still be nice though to get the icon sizes per individual toolbar to retain when Firefox is restarted! :P
=========================
This is **almost** perfect.
I'm currently on Firefox 26.0.For the longest time, I have struggled with the annoyance that I cannot have different toolbars, where some toolbars have large icons and some toolbars have small icons. I have to go to "View" -> "Toolbars" -> "Customize", then either select or deselect the "Use Small Icons" toggle checkbox. That means, ***usually***, that **all** (or **most**) toolbars will always end up reverting to small or large icons based on that checkbox, regardless if I right click a specific toolbar, select "Style/Icons" -> "Icons" -> "Small" or "Large".
For example, to reproduce this sort of thing, go to "View" -> "Toolbars" -> "Customize", then select the "Use Small Icons" toggle checkbox. Now right click any button on the navigation toolbar, select "Style/Icons" -> "Icons" -> "Large". You should now have large button icons on the navigation bar. Close Firefox, and restart it. You will see that the navigation toolbar has reverted back to small button icons.I was hoping that Classic Toolbar Buttons would solve this, but it hasn't!
Complete YouTube Saver
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
After YouTube made changes which make 1080p saving impossible using the older conventional add-ons, a whole bunch of fake (and not free) programs started to be advertised which claim full 1080p support. But, they only download the 720p stream, and upconvert it. Many people fall for those and pay for them to get 1080p support back. They may get a 1080p file, but it's simply upscaled from the 720p YouTube download. It's not the actual 1080p YouTube stream.
Complete YouTube saver is free and works... it downloads the actual 1080p stream. As far as I know, the streams are unencrypted, they are just separate video and audio streams now, which is why older add-ons no longer work. Complete YouTube saver automatically downloads both streams and muxes them using FFmpeg. Don't worry, there's nothing complex or anything involved... FFmpeg is a simple executable, and Complete YouTube saver runs it automatically in the background. You don't have to specify anything other than you want to download and save the 1080p stream, and you will get a .mp4 h264 file with video and audio automatically. There is no upconverting, and muxing is not memory or processing intense; it should work just fine even on an old PIII.
When YouTube starts to encrypt the streams (RTMPE), which I suspect they will some day, then we're in a whole new boat of screwed.
Om eie versamelings te bou, is 'n Mozilla-byvoegingsrekening nodig.
