No, this is specific to add-ons for Mozilla Firefox so is in correct forum area.

That’s true, but I wonder whether people read this forum even if they don’t currently have a problem with Firefox. We might want to “advertise” security-related posts in the sidebar to draw more attention to them. Of course, that could be overkill…

I tend to always use the Lounge Lobby, and don’t recall seeing “most read forums” anywhere. Can you link to that screen or describe how to find it?
