Although the extension by default requires full access to all the websites you visit, in Chromium you can limit its permissions to a list of websites (for example twitter.com, reddit.com, etc.). Does anybody know if such a thing is also possible in e.g. Firefox?


No it's not. And it's one of the reasons I will be weeping when Chromium shits the bed with this MV3 migration.


It can be done, but it must be set by the extension author rather than the users (e.g. bypass paywalls clean requests permissions only for the websites it handles).
