- Hodnocení: 1 z 5od uživatele Florine W. Dekker, před 2 letyThe latest update has broken a lot of non-academic websites for me. With this add-on enabled, the website Cryptpad.fr does not work at all anymore, and visual glitches have appeared on other websites including my own personal website. I have tested this in a completely fresh Firefox install: No add-ons, and websites work perfectly, then I install Lean Library, and the websites break.

Lean Library team - Hodnocení: 1 z 5od uživatele HuiBuh, před 3 letyPlease do not add fonts.bunny.net to every website.
A extension which adds a popup does not need to add a font!!!!Odpověď vývojáře
zveřejněno před 3 letyHello, We appreciate your feedback.
We are using Bunny Fonts as it is a privacy focussed and GDPR compliant provider. The reason we use fonts in our extension is to allow librarians to select their libraries preferred font type to provide a customised experience to their patrons.
However, if there are any concern and feedback on Bunny Fonts, we would really appreciate if you could get in touch with us at [email protected] so we can look into this further for you.

Lean Library team - Hodnocení: 1 z 5od uživatele Elvey, před 3 letyOh, hell no! Let rapacious publishers have access to my browsing history and data for all web sites? Anyone using this would be at great risk of a lawsuit by SAGE if they also use a site such as Sci-Hub.

zveřejněno před 3 letyHi there, we are sorry to hear of your concerns. We take data privacy very seriously, and work hard to ensure our service does not infringe on your right to privacy. You can read more in our policy here: https://www.leanlibrary.com/data-privacy/
With some of our core features (eBooks alternatives, article alternatives, highlight and search), our extension will require a few details to provide a seamless service. The extension scrapes the page for academic material IDs (ISBN and DOI) and based on this information, redirects you to a full text location. We do not collect any personal data (including browsing history) and we use highly advanced regular expressions (defined search pattern) when scraping pages to make sure our extension only picks up DOIs and ISBNs.
If you have any questions, please get in touch with us at [email protected] and we will be assist you further. - Hodnocení: 4 z 5od uživatele Lonelywolf21, před 3 letyGreat user experience. The only thing I find annoying is that there is a pop-up each time I visit an article. Please make an option to disable that.

Clare - Hodnocení: 1 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 17389517, před 3 letyAbsolute rubbish. My university uses this and there's nothing but problems, sluggish connections, redirects not happening properly. Essentially unusable (both this add-on and the shitty university's system). How poor does this have to be before we can report it for abuse?

zveřejněno před 3 letyHello, your feedback is important to us, and we are sorry to hear that you are having trouble using the extension.
In order to investigate this a bit more, we will need some more details on the issues you encountered. This is because some of the redirection settings could be set up by your university library, however, to avoid unwanted redirection, you could use our Advanced Settings to customise it to your preference.
Here is some more information: https://intercom.help/lean-library/en/articles/5668269-how-do-i-use-the-advanced-lean-library-extension-settings
It would also be very useful if you could get in touch with us at [email protected] and let us know the issues you encountered, we can then resolve them for you.

- Hodnocení: 2 z 5od uživatele Prof.Nora, před 4 letyIt slows down my browser for some reason, so I had to uninstall it. Also, the extension kept popping up which was very distracting and annoying. The extension also often overrides normal access to the most random websites, making it nearly impossible to view some sites because the extension forces me to visit a different site or just refuses to let me access it. And once I have managed to log into a site it still takes me numerous clicks to get to the PDF. Overall not a very helpful tool for my research.

zveřejněno před 4 letyHi Prof.Nora,
Thanks very much for your reply and I am sorry to hear this. This can be fixed by changing some settings. If you can get in touch with us directly [email protected] and let us know which institute you are with, we can definitely give you some suggestions on the settings.

- Hodnocení: 2 z 5od uživatele Retr0, před 5 letyWhile the extensions does what it says by giving you access through your library. It also is extremely intensive on the cpu, resulting in a frustrating delay when typing in text fields (such as where I write this review, but also comment sections on social websites and even in Google Docs and Word online). This delay forces me to disable the extension in order to browse normally. Please fix

Clare - Hodnocení: 2 z 5od uživatele fluffymitten, před 5 letyThis add on often overrides normal access to the most random websites, making it impossible to view some sites because the add-on forces me to visit a different site or just plain refuses to let me in. There should be a prompt to continue as a non-Institution user or use my institution's credentials. I've disabled the add-on as it interfered so badly with day to day browsing of news and research sites that I need for work rather than my studies.

We appreciate your feedback.
The pop-up settings are managed by your library but we understand this might be frustrating for you. To address this, on the Lean Library's extension page, please tick "Skip the popup and automate my access.", you will then stop seeing the pop-ups unless you click on our extension.
To increase the optimization for our users, we are currently working on an end-user dashboard, where you will be able customize your own pop-up settings and set your own preferences.
This is under development at the moment and we will release it soon so keep an eye out for an announcement about this!

- Hodnocení: 3 z 5od uživatele Rafael, před 5 letyThe extension creates pop-ups which are unnecessarily big and don't disappear automatically after some time.
Sometimes the pop-ups are useful when they provide a link to an alternative access site.
Most of the times, the pop up simply states that an article has been unlocked.
The pop-ups block a bit less than 1/4 of the web page, completely unnecessarily in either case.
It would be very much appreciated if this could be fixed since the extension works well otherwise.Odpověď vývojáře

Clare - Hodnocení: 4 z 5od uživatele thieu, před 5 letyIdeal for doing research off-campus. Although I would like to use it on-demand so I can just click the extension icon when I need it. Now on a lot of web pages where I don't need the extension it shows a pop-up, which is quite annoying.
