Most users have no idea what a plugin is or how to use it.
That said, it might be nice to have an optional plugin to easily discover annotations and add your own to pages as you browse.
- qwerty_asdf 13y agoFunny you should mention that. Given that that's the defense people seem to proclaim every time someone mentions that disabling JavaScript is now buried as an arcane config flag in Firefox. They say: "just use a plug-in", "just use an add-on"... What they mean to say is: "just don't disable javascript at all... ever."
- nightpool 13y agoMost people, especially those who don't know what a plugin is, should emphatically NOT be disabling javascript wholesale and without exceptions in Firefox. And I disagree that its incredibly hard to google, find NoScript, and follow the directions to install it.
- untog 13y agoThere is a direct connection between people who want to disable JavaScript (and even know what it is) and people who know what plugins are. They are the same people.
