por Sans Undertale, hace 4 añosFor what it is, it works well. That being said, I decided to uninstall it for a few reasons...
1. Apparently, all the definitions are taken from a Google search. Granted the definitions themselves are fine, but it would be nice to have a larger pool of sources to choose from like Merriam-Webster or DuckDuckGo. Defaulting to Google works I suppose, but I don't think a Dictionary extension needs Google.
2. On that note, I can basically recreate the functionality of this extension using Swift Search Selection by adding a source like Miriam-Webster as a search engine, to say nothing of adding it as a search engine to the Firefox Browser itself.
Still gets the four stars because it is a good extension, but I decided since I already use SSS a lot anyway that I'll just keep using that and leave this on the shelf. Thanks for the good times.

- Se valoró con 5 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 12363114, hace un díaNo record of the installation. Double Click on word opened a window. I never go a single definition to show. All say "No Definition"
Would have been a useful addin but its missing a couple of functional elements, one of which is definitions or any clue as to where it's searching. - Se valoró con 5 de 5por Hollytryx, hace 6 días

- Se valoró con 2 de 5por RiffRaffMama, hace 3 mesesIt's good sometimes, but more often than not it can't find a definition, which doesn't make it a particularly comprehensive dictionary. And if a word is a plural or any kind of variation, it can't find it either, just the simple form of the word, and there's no way to get a definition by highlighting a word without the 's' or whatever on the end, because you have to double click, which naturally highlights the entire word.
There's just too many words it can't find. - Se valoró con 1 de 5por InnocuousOctopus, hace 3 mesesNo longer functional. If this is fixed I will be revising my review to give the extention the 5 stars it deserves when it is functional.
For those struggling to find a replacement as I was:
