| 2024-07-25 | Zane | | Lol. Microsoft Edge tries to block it!! Easy fix though! Go to extensions and manually turn it on! |
| 2024-07-10 | B |  | Was working fine. MS Edge update, and you get this message: 'The extension failed to load properly. It might not be able to intercept network requests'. MS don't want your data to be protected it seems..... |
| 2024-07-07 | John | | The best! No wonder Microsoft doesn't like it. |
| 2024-06-27 | J | | Great software, purposefully being broken by Microshaft |
| 2024-05-15 | Morten | | Won't let you use other search engines while enabled. Even after disabling and reinstalling the extension, it still defaults my search engine to duckduckgo after every restart. Let me clear - I like DuckDuckGo and what they do for privacy. But give me an advanced settings tab thank you. |

| 2024-03-15 | Bernard | | The inline generate a duck email address (the email form field level helper) doesn't work. At least not in Edge (dev) with reasonable privacy settings (e.g. strict tracking prevention and uBlock Origin); and it generates an email address but doesn't actually enable it - so any email sent to it bounces. It looks like it relies on something that either edge or uBlock blocks, and so it creates an address but doesn't enable it, so the duck back end rejects any email sent to it. |
