Request that Zoomr be undeleted #17

Closed Hypocee closed 7 years ago

Hypocee commented 7 years ago

I request that Zoomr be un-obliterated from the Internet, ideally with its history. Ceasing maintenance and deprecating Zoomr for a clean sheet is completely reasonable, but deprecating and deleting are different things. Instead of making a new repo or a commit that removed all files while keeping the old code history, you've overwritten it here and killed the Mozilla addon page.

  1. Some people are unwilling or unable to update to a version of Firefox that supports Smart Zoom. There's now no way for them to get any of the versions of the extension that they could use before.
  2. Smart Zoom is not yet at feature parity with Zoomr.
  3. Zoomr was presumably open source for a reason. Now nobody can learn from it.

I brought the listing back. I need to send another udpate to remove the annoying pop up. I'll make that pop up be unobtrusive (meaning so it wont need your interaction to disappear).
