I had never used Waterfox, but I installed it just now, to see why it doesn’t work. Latest Waterfox is apparently based on Firefox 102, which doesn’t support Manifest v3 extensions (and Lemmy Go is one of those). I tried to see if supporting v3 and v2 was feasible, but it’s just too many changes even for a relatively small extension like this one. I’d rather keep the project as simple as possible for now.

I expect Waterfox G6 (which is supposed to release in September) to support Manifest v3 extensions, so maybe we just need to wait a bit.

Agh, thanks for the heads up. No idea how I managed to break that. It will be fixed in a few minutes once it redeploys.

I’ve actually thought about it, but it sounds like too big of a project. I don’t think I’d have the time to maintain it for free. Besides, Lemmy being open source means we should probably focus on directly improving Lemmy vs doing it via addons (I made a tiny fix a few days ago, I can see myself contributing in a more soon).

I released it for Firefox now: https://lemmy.ml/post/1974940

Should work on any firefoxlike and chromelike browser
