Brother it is very helpful for me. I have installed on my laptop's edge browser today. As I am using firefox on my phone, where there is also an extension store. It would be greatful for me if you could upload it on firefox extension store for smartphone. Please🙏

Looks like this is brand new... I've been testing it a bit and it seems to do what it says. It would be nice if you could edit your list. Update... this was working fairly well... I had quite a few keywords and accidently reset it... started adding again but it does not seem to work as it should anymore

Really good, works as intended and really nicely but would still like a way to remove only one or two items instead of having to reset the entire list
