As mentioned on their website, the current version extension (3.x for FF57 and later) only supports Windows (the reason for the .msi file). A Linux release is planned but not yet.
To use on Linux, you need to use the old extension version 2.x and FF56 or lower. I use FF52esr to keep up on security updates.
Some additional explanation is here - ABOUT THE NEW ANT VIDEO DOWNLOADER 3.0 .
Previous versions of the extension are here: Ant Video Downloader Version History.
Ok, I can understand that but how can I install the older versions? Which commands do I need to put into the terminal? Thank you for helping me out because it is so complicated for me....

Unfortunately only versions until May 2018 are listed on the linked page. So that doesn't help anymore. Older versions don't seem to be online anywhere.
