Firefox seems to have removed a lot of extensions from their store now.... And all of them show in the addons.mozilla.org

Confused if it's really my system or mozilla

They announced that plugins with obfuscated code should share the original code for security checks. Otherwise they would be deleted.

For me they deleted all my plugins I had installed on two PCs

Apparently Mozilla currently has a problem with expired certificates which prevents them from signing their addons, so they temporarily disabled all extensions.

@deadlyRants well thats an expensive issue. They lost me to the new Edge.

My also disabled..

set xpinstall.signatures.required to false...... They will work.

On your risk.

.

Oh I thought I was the only one facing this issue, was too lazy to check it out

@Codex404 Indeed these are problems like this which generally degrade userbase highly

I guess if the problem now persists more than a few days, firefox will be used only by those who focus on FOSS and hate acquisition of internet by google majorly.

@gitlog this is a good step nonetheless, there were so many cases of add-ons logging keystrokes and some being used as miners and spying and whatnot
I'm sure most of the legit add-ons will be back soon

@justasithlord Signature checking is good, yes, but disabling already installed (and verified by the time of the installation) addons is a bit... bad.

@sbiewald if the add-ons were verified by Mozilla already then they haven't disabled those. Like uBlock Origin, it's still active cause it was verified earlier

@irene it was showing me as an alternative to use instead of the one I already have
I tried installing, can't install "download failed" even though my net is working just fine

Take a load of this, even duckduckgo add-on isn't working
I gotta agree with op, this is bullshit
Are they implying not a single add-on is up to their current standards?

They are back !

All of them including the ddg extension

@justasithlord well onetab and javascript toggle weren't removed

@justasithlord I have noticed that uBlock and a few others remained active, too.
On the other hand, signatures were required since a few versions a few versions and all addons are signed since.

@irene worked for me....and same solution on many forums.

@irene seems to me

All my addons are back and functional

@Nanos I didn't reboot tho

Something very bad is going on guess(as in big bug)

To all,

The sad part is it's not even a real fix. They just messed with internal values to validate stuff longer while they fix the actual issue. I get certificate stuff is messy but my word this is a big mistake that will probably cost them a small hit at least.
