This is where the confusion may be.  I'm using the Firefox extension[1].

The stand-alone app is only built for 32bit by upstream (that seems to be a
common situation for Mozilla stuff, rather sad if you ask me ;-).  The code is
available in an SVN repo so it ought to be possible to do a build from source.
