Great. Just FUCKING great. When I was looking at devrant, suddenly some add-ons crashed (correction: ALL add-ons crashed!). All other tabs flooded with ads. I go to the add-ons manager, and what is their SHITTY excuse?
"Starting in Firefox version 57, only extensions built using WebExtensions APIs will work. Not sure if your add-ons are affected? See Firefox add-on technology is modernizing and these Frequently Asked Questions for details."
Anyone of you fuckwits ever heard of LEGACY SUPPORT? Leaving some time so the other devs can adapt to your new brainfart technology?! Even fucking C++ has that. FUCK!
Thank god devrant doesn't have ads.

    Mozilla has a problem with their key for signing addons. Therefore all addons are considered unverified.

    @korrat I know, I read that "excuse". Honestly, something is rotten in the kingdom of browsers... Either someone screwed up really bad, or something went missing or stolen. Or both. Still, my laptop slowed to a halt when 6 tabs burst full of ads. I have a new appreciation for them Adblock devs, I will make a donation to them later.

    @bladedemon I know that there is something wrong with the whole situation. I'm still waiting for a real fix, because I don’t trust that fix using studies.

    @bladedemon Atleast you can; I can't donate 'cause I don't have an international credit card and PayPal can't be used to add or store balance.

    @ewpratten Yes, they deployed some hotfixes over the studies thingy. Still, this whole thing stinks bad, from miles away. Oh well, I took this chance to make some backup plan software for my own systems. Along with other backup plans.
