I don't want to know how many browsers do not verify #XPI signatures anymore... Like zombies, walking around
If you disabled xpinstall.signatures.required make sure you reenable it now!
And pass this reminder on to your peers and channels
@martin Yes, but how do we get our extensions back? :-|
@dwardoric upgrade to 66.0.4 (or 60.6.2 for ESR) and it should be fixed..?

@dwardoric @martin Enable "Studies" and the hotfix will be applied. After that you can turn of studies again.
@martin @dwardoric My thoughts exactly.
@dwardoric @raichoo @martin why? Also it's still there as chinese bought out closed source spyware 😂
@dwardoric @martin @raichoo I think you have your rose-tinted glasses on. Despite the point everything good you could possibly miss already exists on current gen browsers, so what is there to miss? Absolutely terrible management that killed the browser and turned it into spyware?
@dwardoric @raichoo @martin What is missing in your opinion? Have you looked into scripts and addons for that behaviour? I'm using qutebrowser + python scripts + greasemonkey and I'm been having trouble coming with something this browser can't do.
@Wraptile @martin @raichoo Simple: A true secure private browsing mode. In Opera not even tabs could "see" each other and related data (cookies etc.) in private mode. I hadn't expected to miss it actually but I do on an almost daily basis. Although the "multi account containers" plugin for firefox looks promising.
@raichoo @martin I miss Opera... *sigh*
