Hello,

congrats for the project! I installed on android 7.1.1 and mozilla 68.7.0. I expected the video is stopped but I see it continuing. I see the extension in the right-up corner menu but when I click on it nothing happens Thanks in advance

Mobile would have been the best audience for this addon, i believe, because, i believe that many people use youtube to listen to music or podcasts while using mobile data, which is usually more expensive per bit than home data, so what i usually do when listening to stuff on youtube which i don't need the video for, i would tur down the video quality to 144p which is usually the lowest quality on youtube videos, which barely makes me able to not surpass 4GB of monthly data use, and audio uses a lot less data than lossy 144p video on youtube (maybe it would be possible to have 192K audio quality on youtube, which might be more data than lossy 144p video content). i see that the readme talks about chrome and safari ports of this addon, but i think the biggest audience would be android Firefox users, also, i think we should focus on Android before IOS, because if you've bought an Apple phone, you are probably not the type of person that digs deep into tech stuff, and probably wouldn't even have tried firefox in your life.
