Are you sure about that?
I am using Firefox on Windows and I currently have no problem sideloading extensions. They stay enabled and even update automatically.
Try, for example, installing this [1] bypass paywall extension via the "Download and install the latest version" link. Works flawless. ... or am I getting something wrong?

- jwitthuhn 6y agoIt looks like this is happening because the bypass paywall extension is still signed by mozilla, but not distributed through their normal addon website, which I just now learned is possible. Still not great, but it is good to learn that it is just a little less restrictive than I thought.
