Hi, thanks for the add-on. There seems to be a problem, however: copying the QR code to the clipboard doesn't work. To reproduce:
1. Enter "qr test" (no quotes) in the address bar - a new tab with a generated QR code is opened.
2. Click on "Copy to Clipboard". Notice that the QR code isn't copied to the clipboard.
QR Code version: 1.2023.722.0, Firefox version: 131.0.3 (64-bit), and I have "dom.events.asyncClipboard.clipboardItem" set to "true" in about:config.

USELESS as a reader, it scans, but the result is given as a notification, thus I cannot open an url nor copy/paste the text
