Yep, and HTST (if you don't trust that you can use an Firefox addon to perform certificate pinning). I believe HTST got introduced in the wake of the DigiNotar debacle (listen Darknet Diaries #3). Mitmproxy also made it easy.
I guess this Mozilla Firefox change deprecates HTTPS Everywhere.
Either way, we've come a long way. For people in the Dutch security world, DigiNotar was a known joke. I knew about their terrible security (and the implications) back around 2000-2004. Although there have been more vulnerabilities too, such as Hearthbleed and POODLE.
