Are you going to do anything about malfunctioning extensions?

I understand, it's not an easy task, but the browser becomes unusable, if every time I install a new extension, there is no quality check whatsoever, and I end up having to restart in troubleshoot mode to find out which extension is causing parts of the webiste I am visiting to now show up. It's just frustrating. I very much value having to many extensions and that's why I use Firefox on a mac as the main browser, but something has to be done. Extensions should satisfy some basic rules and not cause malfunctioning!

Hello,

Please check out the Recommended Extensions program.

Also, some issues may arise because of several extensions interfering with each other. It's hard to predict such issues, so please make sure to report them to the add-on developers (through the add-on homepages).
