I'm somewhat disappointed that there is no Firefox version. However, given that the author most likely uses his extension, I can see what might have happened.

- jonas-w 4y agoI always thought firefox and chrome share a standard where you could build one extension and use them on both platforms?
- pinusc 4y agoAFAIK WebExtensions APIs are mostly compatible but the developer still has to do some setup to make them work on both
- Terretta 4y agoHere's a discussion of doing that for V2: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Build_a_cross_browser_extension https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/Web... To your point, the Orion webkit-based browser for MacOS supports both: https://browser.kagi.com/ https://browser.kagi.com/ AFAIK, the only webkit browser to do so.
- coffee_cup 4y agoThere's leechblock
- culi 4y agoI use leechblock. It's pretty great. It's extremely feature rich. The UI is a little ugly but "ugly" in the style that a hackernewser would likely appreciate. My only complaint is the way it does this thing when you're out of time and it redirects you (either to their block page or a custom page you set up). Not sure how it does it but the original url you tried to reach doesn't get saved in your history. If I try to manually disable the extension it'll also automatically close the page with the leechblock message so it's gone forever. Kind of annoying if it's a link I'd like to revisit after work Other than it's pretty neat
