The only thing I didn’t like about the recent update was that many of the add-ons I used stopped working after upgrading to Firefox Quantum. It works well and does its job but if there’s one thing that I could add to it, it would be the option for users to select a specific area or size of the webpage and save it as a screenshot. The built-in screenshot tool is simple and easy to use. However, you do have the option to choose how long the screenshot should be retained – Indefinitely, 10 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day, 2 weeks or 1 month. If you choose to upload it online the screenshot will be available for 14 days (by default), after which it will expire and be deleted. After you select one of those options, you will be shown a preview of the screenshot and the option to download it to your device or upload it online.
The built-in screenshot tool has two options: Save Full Page and Save Visible.
FIRESHOT INCOMPATIBLE WITH FIREFOX 54.0 INSTALL
Now I don’t have to install a third-party add-on and worry about keeping it up-to-date or finding an alternative when the developer stops updating it. I was happy to find out that Mozilla decided to add a built-in screenshot tool in Firefox Quantum. I use a lot of add-ons for work and personal use like Colorzilla (color picker and gradient generator), Copy Link Text, Measure-It (ruler for measuring web elements in pixels) and Fireshot (screenshot tool) just to mention a few. One of the main reasons why I’ve stuck to using Firefox even though Google Chrome was more faster is because of Add-ons. I’ve been using Firefox since it was first launched back in 2004.
