Seems like the authors of this extension have a bias towards chrome.
- mirimir 8y agoYeah. But it does have ~60% share.[0] Chrome 61.05% Safari 12.99% IE 10.92% Firefox 7.02% Other 8.03% 0) https://malcolm.cloudflare.com/ https://malcolm.cloudflare.com/
- PudgePacket 8y agoChrome and Firefox have the same extension format, it's probably only 10 minutes to get it on Firefox too! https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Porting_a_Google_Chrome_extension https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/Web...
- mirimir 8y agoGood point.
- prashnts 8y agoNot only that, but Firefox has amazing tooling such as `web-ext` cli, where you can just execute `web-ext sign` and it'll generate the `.xpi` format, run it through automated test, and give you signed versions you can distribute from wherever you want. They even have a polyfill to make the Promise based API that firefox uses compatible to Callback style APIS in Chrome.
- mycognitivebias 8y agoThanks for sharing this. Bookmarked and weekend sorted :)
- mycognitivebias 8y agoTouché. I've had a few messages asking for Firefox and Safari versions and we'll work on them as soon as we can.
- remram 8y agoHow do I get notified when this happens? While that page technically has an RSS feed, I am not hopeful that it is the kind that will update when you update the site.
- mycognitivebias 8y agoI'm working on this and I hope it'll be ready within a week or so. I thought it's a 10 minutes job as someone else here said, but I must be much slower than that and I'm still trying to get my head around it. The Extension Compatibility Test for Firefox page seems to freeze when I test my .crx file. Drop me an email on the Contact page (https://mycognitivebias.com/get-in-touch/ https://mycognitivebias.com/get-in-touch/) and I'll let you know when it's ready. Thanks
