It's back. Smile

It's creator is Ukrainian and the extension stopped working for me on Brave browser a couple or more years back. I hoped against the worst for him.

I'd check back from time to time, nope, but now I love FF, small and accessible footprint, very accurate IMO and excellent graphics.

Okay, I downloaded it, but how do I access it?

The key to enforcement is to punish the violator, not an inanimate object. The punishment of inanimate objects for the commission of a crime or carelessness is an affront to stupidity.

It should install into your Brave extensions, where you'll use the options and location to customize.

In the upper right should be the blue button "install in brave" or something like that.

The "extension" icon in the upper right of the menu bar, supposed to be a "puzzle pice", but looks like a irregular blob.

Click and you will see active extensions, and a "pin" that will "pin" extensions you want to be able to access quickly, and at the bottom, "manage extensions" where you can uninstall or enable/disable as you like.

As well as search for extensions and the "web store", similar to "Apple App Store" and Android "Google Play".

My browsers are already loaded up with extensions, enough that I'm hesitant to add to the mix (due to the possibility of hard-to-diagnose interactions). What sets the FF weather app above all the other weather apps out there?

To give a sense of scale, I usually run Firefox (with about 100 tabs open) and Chrome (about 25) simultaneously, with Brave and Safari used occasionally, and have about ten extensions in each (many duplicated). The extension I use most is Tab Manager Plus which allows almost instant access to any of my open tabs. I use three 27" monitors on a Mac Mini M2 Pro.

Try it and dump it if you don't like it.

Sigmonkey,
Can this work on my Brave app on my cellphone too?
