Unfortunately I have a problem with Firefox/Waterfox as I cannot make it recognize the URLs of the active pages. In Chromium I used "URL in title", but since Manifest V3 I've switched to Firefox and I cannot find any way to put the URL in the title of the window, no addon works in my case. Also the AW add-on doesn't seem to do anything. So most of my browsing cannot be categorized now :-(.
