Firefox port to WebExtension Framework? #435

Closed F1nny closed 6 years ago

F1nny commented 6 years ago

Hey guys, firstly thank you for this amazing addon I have used for a long time now and absolutely love it, was super-stoked when moved from Chromium to Firefox to be able to continue using and easily move my rules was amazing. Anyway I've been on Firefox Developer edition for a while and all been working fantastic, however with the upcoming Firefox 57 release all extensions are being moved to a new framework and will stop working if they haven't been moved over. Are you guys planning to get umatrix ported into WebExtensions framework so when launched we can continue using the extension? I'm sure major pain in the ass them pulling a swap haha but hopefully you guys plan on getting that migrated over before release as I know 57 just hit the nightly channel earlier in August so it's not too far off. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-add-technology-modernizing?as=u&utm_source=inproduct

You guys planning to get this migrated to the new system so hopefully can avoid any downtime?:) Thanks guys and again thanks for your all your amazing work!

Though does appear the umatrix issue tracker was disabled because of idiots trying to use umatrix haha, hopefully you see this @gorhill anyway just as a heads up! Thanks man for all your amazing work! (Also saw some commits RE webext so right on :) thanks man!)
