Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon #106

Open rgiotxy opened 2 years ago

rgiotxy commented 2 years ago

I have a version of the add-on Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon that is superior to the one your extension supplies, would you mind adding my version to your database so that any users who may want to can get the updated / improved / superior version? It is one of the single most useful add-ons I have ever used, I don't know where I'd be without it. I definitely recommend it for any users who have ABP or Pale Moon forks ABL / ABPrime.

Your version: 0.9.2 (released on the 26th of May, 2014)

My version: 0.9.2.1-signed (released on the 21st of November, 2015)

If you're wondering how I managed to get my hands on this version of the extension, I was able to salvage it from my old Mozilla Firefox profile.

EDIT: Github doesn't seem to display the link to your version, caa:addon/adblock-plus-pop-up-addon.

Have you ever heard of uBlock? There's a version specifically maintained for legacy Firefox-type of browsers: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy/

I'm aware of uBlock Origin, but I prefer ABP. It has a blockable elements console, a highly user-friendly GUI, a very intuitive pop-up add-on, etc. I honestly can't think of a single reason to change from APB (or, in my case, ABL) to uBO.

The add-on is in the archive for a reason, so I don't think uploading an updated version would be a problem. @rgiotxy can you upload it to a GitHub repository (extracted)?
