bricktab: LEGO® Fan News in Every New Tab Autor: Bricktab

bricktab turns every new tab into a front page for brick fans. Open a tab and the latest LEGO® fan news is already there: set reveals, reviews, MOCs, minifigures and AFOL community stories, curated from the fan sites and blogs you would otherwise check one by one. No account, no sign-up, nothing to set up.

What you get

• A curated news feed. One clean page of headlines from trusted fan sources, with a featured story at the top and more loading as you scroll.
• Search. Filter the feed by title or source as you type.
• Likes and bookmarks. Support the stories you enjoy and save the ones to read later. Bookmarks stay on your device.
• Brick Deals. Current offers on sets, gathered in one place.
• Events calendar. Fan conventions, exhibitions and store events, with an optional reminder the day before.
• Notifications, only if you want them. New articles and upcoming events, each with its own switch.
• Make it yours. Light and dark themes, seven backgrounds and 11 interface languages.
• Works offline. The last feed is kept on your device, and a small pixel-art jumping game appears when the connection drops.
• Accessible. Every theme meets WCAG 2.2 AA contrast and every control works from the keyboard.

Optional helpers for shoppers, off by default

Switch these on in Settings and Firefox asks for your permission first:

• BrickLink prices on set pages at LEGO.com, so you can compare before you buy.
• What the Insiders points on a set are worth in real money.
• A "Read about this project" button on Ideas project pages.

Privacy

No account and no sign-in. bricktab cannot see your browsing history. It uses a random anonymous ID to count likes and to measure which stories get read. Firefox lets you switch that measurement off when you install bricktab and at any time afterwards in the add-on's permissions, and you can reset the ID whenever you like in Settings.
