@collinjackson : in case you still maintain PwdHash, could you fork this repo here, merge the pull request(s) provided and publish https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pwdhash/ to fix the severe issues starting with Firefox 66.0.2 ? If you're not willing to continue work on the add-on I'd volunteer to do so.
I think I would prefer to unpublish the extension since I don’t want to be on the hook for updating it in the future. It’s open source research software and you are welcome to publish and maintain your own version.
If you like you could remove all references to yourself from mozilla's add-on page and add me as new owner, then removing yourself. That would keep the original add-on alive. In case you're interested, let me know.
@GWuk : Excellent work with PwdHash2, thanks!
Thanks, great stuff! I came here to report the 'q' problem and the wrong password in recent firefox and then I found the project's been forked. This is totally not clear without coming to github, and I've just been waiting for a plugin update forever. Please remove the broken plugin or update it! Leaving a buggy version will just confuse users and adds no value to this project.
I fear this project has been abandoned :cry:
I tried to contact the author Philipp Nebert, but no reply. Seems he even deleted his github account (just have a look at the commits and merged pull requests, user is now named "ghost").
So I have created an alternative version: https://github.com/GWuk/PwdHash2 / https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pwdhash2/
Besides of fixing #10, #12, #13, #14, PwdHash2 is also a little bit enhanced:
On a sidenote: I'm also the author of the pull request for migrating this extension to WebExtension two years ago
