Latest version
Version 2.9.1
Released Jul 29, 2026 - 4.59 MBWorks with firefox 140.0 and later, android 142.0 and laterNew and improved:- You can now register your comments and replies. Pick "Comment / Reply" on any platform, paste the link of the post you replied to, and your comment text gets its own signed, permanent record. Where a platform gives comments their own link you can add it too, or later via Manage links.
- Comments get the same protections as posts: links checked as you type, a minimum comment length, an optional image attachment, and a review step before signing that shows the post you replied to (it cannot be changed afterwards).
- Where a platform gives comments no link of their own (most do not), the extension says so up front and never asks you to add a link that cannot exist.
- After registering, the extension now offers the three ways to attach your verification link (before posting, by editing, or as a reply under your own post) instead of guessing which applies to you.
- Added Rooverse (web.rooverse.app): register posts, images, multiple images, videos, and replies, and see verified badges on Rooverse posts whose first comment carries a CTID link.
- The Settings page no longer opens the URL help panel while you are typing a link.

Your changes are signed, and your content's status and verification are unaffected. Available in Settings, the toolbar popup, and the in-page panel.
