Great extension, used it for years since the old fandom still comes out on top in search results.
However, I recently switched from Edge to Firefox and in Firefox the search field of this extension's UI is no longer automatically selected. Thus I have to press my hotkey then use my mouse to select the search field before typing. This was not a problem on Edge. I wonder if pm5k could fix this, or if it's caused by a particular Firefox setting I can change?
Apart from that, the extension works exactly how I want.

3/5 because it doesn't always automatically focus. Feels like a weird 50/50 chance that it works properly, hence half rating.
Sounds VERY EASY to fix.
Edit: It happens exclusively when text is highlighted, ie whever you copy something that you want to search for with the extension, so often.
