I've got a broken URL:

Tested on Edge 102.0.1245.44 (working); Chrome 103.0.5060.66 (working); Firefox 102.0 + LtTF 2.3.3 (not working)
Replacing the right single quotation mark with an ASCII apostrophe didn't make LtTF accept it, either:
*Actually, these work -- the problem is that, out-of-the-box, the add-on doesn't have the permissions it needs to function. I had to click on the toolbar icon to get it to ask for these permissions.

Yes, this is a bit unfortunate, but extensions really should not upfront demand for permissions they may only later need, but only reactively upon request. This is also emphasized in each store review when one tries to submit an extension that does that. There is, as far as I can tell, no better way.
The instructions are right in the description.
