Well now that Firefox has an Apple Silicon native version... what about the compatibility of its extensions/add-ons? Do we have a list or identifier that would indicate if there are add-ons that works or would have problems?

I have an add-on/extension in mind which is the DownloadHelper tool and its built in converter. I'm asking this because I know it primarily uses the CPU (in my case Intel macs) during conversion and I want to know if this tool would still work (or better seeing how M1 chips have been destroying benchmarks) with M1 macs.

Shift+Command+5 opens system screen recorder utility. Mozilla could tweak the website to show more insight about addons.
