Update for e10s? #7

Open PimpUigi opened 7 years ago

Not sure if you're still working on this at all. I've been able to keep using it through Fx54, (haven't tested 55/56 betas) - CTR support helps keep it going. : )

But it either prevents e10s from enabling, or it doesn't function properly when e10s is force enabled. When e10s is disabled it still functions fairly flawlessly after the "Boom!" message goes away. lol

Was working on this some in Firefox 55. Managed to hide the snippets and extra search bar with e10s enabled. But the newtab Grid won't show up on about:home with e10s enabled. Just the newtab search bar and gear button.

Feels so fixable, but I have too many gaps in my knowledge.

Oh my gosh thank you so much @PimpUigi for being a user! You have been a loyal user for a long long time! I can't believe I missed your post and you had 2 months of patience! Excuse that please the last couple months have been real busy.

I think even if we fix it, its going to be removed real soon. Firefox 57 is removing everything bootstrap, which is considered legacy now. :(

We will have to re-make it as a web extension.

If it can be remade as a web extension 9.9 I do plan on sticking with Firefox 55 (or 56 if it still has the search bar) for as long as I can. Fuck what Mozilla is doing with Fx57
