Mozilla is open, and they can simply join the bug tracker to talk with devs. They are doing the wrong way.

  That doesn't have the same effect. The bug tracker doesn't get articles shared across Facebook & Twitter. The bug tracker doesn't engage those users who don't understand that their extensions are about get taken away. My 70-year-old mother, for instance, who uses Firefox, doesn't know what they're doing. But she won't switch to Ultron for the same reasons I won't. I showed her how to use Exalead search, she has a Yahoo email (like me), watches stuff on Dailymotion and Vimeo rather than YouTube, etc.. She's not about to join their bug tracker. But she will see a Change.org petition and sign it.

    Does your 70-year-old mother use Tree Style Tabs or Pentadactyl?

      Would you believe me if I told you I don't know exactly what extensions she uses? I believe the main one she has that will break is ePub Reader, though.

        See this release note: https://addons.mozilla.org/ru/firefox/addon/epubreader/versions/?page=1#version-1.5.0.11 https://addons.mozilla.org/ru/firefox/addon/epubreader/versi... Your mother is likely to weather the transition to WebExtensions well enough.
