Wouldn't it be better to make this a tampermonkey script? #34

Firefox user here! Doing temporary extensions makes them deactivate on the browser's reopen, So i just have to put out that a tamper-monkey script fixes it.

Hi! Sorry for the inconvenience. Actually, this extension used to be a Tampermonkey script! I ported it to an extension a long time ago, due to the limitations of the script (I think Disboard was trying to block it). You can check out the old script here if you'd like (it shouldn't work anymore though).

I found this possible solution. If you have a version of Firefox (such as Developer Edition), you can disable blocking unsigned extensions, which should allow you to install this extension. You can read about the process here. After you've changed the config, you'll have to zip up all the contents of the folder with the manifest.json file, and then you should be able to install as normal in about:addons.

If you need a different solution, perhaps you could install Chromium or Ungoogled Chromium or something similar, just for the use of this extension, to keep in the background.

Wouldn't it be better to run this as an node.js app if that's the only alternative? I mean, I wouldn't mind. As long as I can dock and auto start it 😅
